It's really the invisible house, isn't it?  We don't know who the head of the 
house is (Prof. Vector??).  We don't know who the house ghost is (the Gray 
Lady?).  And the Gryffindors never take classes with the Ravenclaws, although 
they have lots of classes with the Slytherins (Flying in SS/PS, Care of 
Magical Creatures, & Potions) and 1 with the Hufflepuffs (Herbology).  Since 
we never see the Gyffindors in the Astronomy course they're taking (SS, p. 
246, PoA exams "in the tallest tower"), maybe there are Ravenclaws there??

But there are a few other Ravenclaws mentioned:
Penelope Clearwater, the Ravenclaw Prefect
Sorted in SS/PS:  Terry Boot, Mandy Brocklehurst, Lisa Turpin.  Later we find 
out Padma Patil is in Ravenclaw.  And I guess the mystery students are 
another possibility:  Morag MacDougal, Moon, Nott, Sally-Anne Perks
