Cubohemioctahedron
(dual polyhedron)

In geometry, the hexahemioctacron is the dual of the cubohemioctahedron, and is one of nine dual hemipolyhedra. It appears visually indistinct from the octahemioctacron.

Since the cubohemioctahedron has four hexagonal faces passing through the model center, The hexahemioctacron has four vertices at infinity. In Magnus Wenninger's Dual Models, they are represented with intersecting infinite prisms passing through the model center, cut off at a certain point that is convenient for the maker.
