. Bulletin - New York State Museum. Science. Fig. 46 Fig. 47 It is composed of 12 pentagonal faces, each of which is par- allel to one axis and meets the other two at unequal distances. As will be seen from fig. 46 and 47 the pyritohedron exists in complementary forms, fig. 46 being known as the plus and fig. 47 as the minus form. The 24 faces of the plus and minus pyiitohedrons have the same position in space as the 24 faces of the corresponding tetrahexahedron of the normal group. Diploid. The diploid (fig. 48, 49) is composed of 24 quadrilat-. Please note that these images are extracted fro
