A hyperplane of the symplectic dual polar space DW(2n−1,F)$DW(2n-1,\mathbb{F})$, n≥2$n\ge 2$, is said to be of subspace-type if it consists of all maximal singular subspaces of W(2n−1,F)$W(2n-1,\mathbb{F})$ meeting a given (n−1)$(n-1)$-dimensional subspace of 8a490b4329a368ef0c4d7ab16" title="Click to view the MathML source">PG(2n−1,F)$\text{PG}(2n-1,\mathbb{F})$. We show that a hyperplane of DW(2n−1,F)$DW(2n-1,\mathbb{F})$ is of subspace-type if and only if every hex F$F$ of DW(2n−1,F)$DW(2n-1,\mathbb{F})$ intersects it in either F$F$, a singular hyperplane of F$F$ or the extension of a full subgrid of a quad. In the case 8abcecff77cb8e6851c429f" title="Click to view the MathML source">F$\mathbb{F}$ is a perfect field of characteristic 2, a stronger result can be proved, namely a hyperplane e6287fba811e9222a8df087df01a1af" title="Click to view the MathML source">H$H$ of DW(2n−1,F)$DW(2n-1,\mathbb{F})$ is of subspace-type or arises from the spin-embedding of e6a587e2c13447aaf45af289c61072" title="Click to view the MathML source">DW(2n−1,F)≅DQ(2n,F)$DW(2n-1,\mathbb{F})\cong DQ(2n,\mathbb{F})$ if and only if every hex F$F$ intersects it in either F$F$, a singular hyperplane of F$F$, a hexagonal hyperplane of F$F$ or the extension of a full subgrid of a quad.
