Excavated dodecahedron triangle is not present. The 20 vertices of the convex hull match the vertex arrangement of the dodecahedron. The faceting is a noble polyhedron. With six six-sided faces around each vertex, it is topologically equivalent to a quotient space of the hyperbolic order-6 hexagonal tiling, {6,6} and is an abstract type {6,6}. It is one of ten abstract regular polyhedra of index two with vertices on one orbit. Excavated dodecahedron In geometry, the excavated dodecahedron is a star polyhedron having 60 equilateral triangular faces. Its exterior surface represents the Efg stellation of the icosahedron. It appears in Magnus Wenninger's book
Expanded cuboctahedron prisms. If the central rhombic dodecahedron and the 12 rhombic prisms are removed, you can create a toroidal polyhedron with all regular polygon faces. This toroid has 86 faces (8 triangles and 78 squares), 168 edges, and 62 vertices. 14 of the 62 vertices are on the interior, defining the removed central rhombic dodecahedron. With Euler characteristic χ = f + v - e = -20, its genus, g = (2-χ)/2 is 11. Expanded cuboctahedron The expanded cuboctahedron is a polyhedron, constructed as a expanded cuboctahedron. It has 50 faces: 8 triangles, 30 squares, and 12 rhombs. The 48 vertices
