In geometry, the small icosihemidodecahedron (or small icosahemidodecahedron) is a uniform star polyhedron, indexed as U49. It has 26 faces (20 triangles and 6 decagons), 60 edges, and 30 vertices.[1] Its vertex figure alternates two regular triangles and decagons as a crossed quadrilateral. It is a hemipolyhedron with its six decagonal faces passing through the model center.
It is given a Wythoff symbol, 3⁄2 3 | 5, but that construction represents a double covering of this model.

[edit]It shares its edge arrangement with the icosidodecahedron (its convex hull, having the triangular faces in common), and with the small dodecahemidodecahedron (having the decagonal faces in common).
