Using either the fully supported or Miller's rules criterion (Webb), the regular
octahedron has two reflexible stellations: the octahedron itself and the stella
octangula .
The 8 face planes are illustrated above.
The stellation diagram obtained by the intersection of 6 planes not parallel to a fixed plane is illustrated above (Wenninger 1989, p. 36, Fig. 24) and corresponds
to the 2-triangular grid graph .
