== Scaliform honeycomb== A '''[[scaliform polytope|scaliform]] honeycomb''' is [[vertex-transitive]], like a ''uniform honeycomb'', with regular polygon faces while cells and higher elements are only required to be ''orbiforms'', equilateral, with their vertices lying on hyperspheres. For 3D honeycombs, this allows a subset of [[Johnson solid]]s along with the uniform polyhedra. Some scaliforms can be generated by an alternation process, leaving, for example, [[pyramid (geometry)|pyramid]] and [[cupola (geometry)|cupola]] gaps.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://bendwavy.org/klitzing/explain/polytope-tree.htm#scaliform|title = Polytope-tree}}</ref> {| class=wikitable style="text-align:center; width:600px;" |+ Euclidean honeycomb scaliforms !colspan=3|Frieze slabs !Prismatic stacks |- !s<sub>3</sub>{2,6,3}, {{CDD|node_h|2x|node_h|6|node|3|node_1}} !s<sub>3</sub>{2,4,4}, {{CDD|node_h|2x|node_h|4|node|4|node_1}} !s{2,4,4}, {{CDD|node_h|2x|node_h|4|node|4|node}} !3s<sub>4</sub>{4,4,2,∞}, {{CDD|node|4|node|4|node_h|2x|node_h|infin|node_1}} |- |[[File:Runcic snub 263 honeycomb.png|200px]] |[[File:Runcic snub 244 honeycomb.png|200px]] |[[File:Alternated cubic slab honeycomb.png|200px]] |[[File:Elongated square antiprismatic celluation.png|200px]] |- !
