Floret Pentagonal Tiling - Related Polyhedra and Tilings

Related Polyhedra and Tilings

This tiling is topologically related as a part of sequence of polyhedra of pentagons with face configurations (V3.3.3.3.n). (The sequence progresses into tilings the hyperbolic plane to any n.) These face-transitive figures have (n32) rotational symmetry.
