In four-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the stericantic tesseractic honeycomb is a uniform space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 4-space.

Alternate names

  • Prismatotruncated demitesseractic tetracomb (pithatit)
  • Small prismatodemitesseractic tetracomb

The [4,3,31,1], , Coxeter group generates 31 permutations of uniform tessellations, 23 with distinct symmetry and 4 with distinct geometry. There are two alternated forms: the alternations (19) and (24) have the same geometry as the 16-cell honeycomb and snub 24-cell honeycomb respectively.
