The gyroelongated pentagonal pyramid is Johnson solid
and can be obtained by cumulating the top of a pentagonal
antiprism , or alternately by replacing one pentagonal
pyramid of an icosahedron with a pentagon .
Removing a second pentagonal pyramid from an
icosahedron gives a metabidiminished
icosahedron .
The skeleton of the gyroelongated pentagonal pyramid
appeared in Zaks (1976) and was used by Owens (1980) in the construction of a 76-node
polyhedral quintic
nonhamiltonian graph (though neither author identified the graph
as the skeleton of any particular polyhedron ).
