A quartic vertex-transitive graph is a quartic graph that is vertex transitive. Read and Wilson (1998, pp. 164-166) enumerate all connected quartic vertex-transitive graphs on 19 and fewer nodes, some of which are illustrated above.
The quartic symmetric graphs are a special case of the quartic vertex-transitive graphs (i.e., those that are also edge-transitive).
Classes of connected quartic vertex-transitive graphs include the antiprism graphs. Specific
cases are summarized in the following table. In particular, Qt31 can be constructed
as the distance-3 graph distance graph of
the Heawood graph or as the Levi
graph of the biplane on 7 points (DistanceRegular.org).
It is also a distance-regular graph with
intersection array that is also distance-transitive.
