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.
Images
The following Petrie polygon and stereographic projection each highlight the same arrangement of two neighboring (at a point) tetrahedral cells in red and orange and the octahedral cell between them in blue:
In the Petrie polygon, as there are a total of 5 tetrahedra and 5 octahedra, the others can be obtained by rotating the above highlights by τ∕5.
