The pyrorectichoron is a uniform polychoron in the pyrotope family. Its cells are 5 tetrahedra and 5 octahedra.
The pyrorectichoron can be constructed as tetrahedron || octahedron, meaning it's also a segmentochoron, K4.5. Deleting any vertex from the pyrorectichoron forms the trigonal biantiprismatic ring, or K4.6, which can be constructed as trigonal prism || gyrated triangle. Deleting another vertex - specifically, one of the three from the gyrated triangle - will form the digonal gyrobicupolic ring, or K4.8.
