Hexahemioctacron
(dual polyhedron)In geometry, the cubohemioctahedron is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U15. Its vertex figure is a crossed quadrilateral.
A nonconvex polyhedron has intersecting faces which do not represent new edges or faces. In the picture vertices are marked by golden spheres, and edges by silver cylinders.
It is a hemipolyhedron with 4 hexagonal faces passing through the model center. The hexagons intersect each other and so only triangle portions of each are visible.

It shares the vertex arrangement and edge arrangement with the cuboctahedron (having the square faces in common), and with the octahemioctahedron (having the hexagonal faces in common).
