In geometry, the pentagrammic crossed-antiprism is one in an infinite set of nonconvex antiprisms formed by triangle sides and two regular star polygon caps, in this case two pentagrams.

It differs from the pentagrammic antiprism by having opposite orientations on the two pentagrams.

This polyhedron is identified with the indexed name U80 as a uniform polyhedron.
