Honeycomb many feet, called travel stain by beekeepers when seen on frames of comb honey. Honeycomb in the "supers" that are not used for brood (e.g. by the placement of a queen excluder) stays light-colored. Numerous wasps, especially Polistinae and Vespinae, construct hexagonal prism-packed combs made of paper instead of wax; in some species (such as "Brachygastra mellifica"), honey is stored in the nest, thus technically forming a paper honeycomb. However, the term "honeycomb" is not often used for such structures. The axes of honeycomb cells are always quasihorizontal, and the nonangled rows of honeycomb cells are always horizontally (not vertically)
Cubic-octahedral honeycomb There are 5 related uniform honeycombs generated within the same family, generated with 2 or more rings of the Coxeter group : , , , , . The rectified cubic-octahedral honeycomb is a compact uniform honeycomb, constructed from cuboctahedron, and rhombicuboctahedron cells, in a cuboid vertex figure. It has a Coxeter diagram . The cyclotruncated cubic-octahedral honeycomb is a compact uniform honeycomb, constructed from truncated cube, octahedron cells, in a square antiprism vertex figure. It has a Coxeter diagram . It can be seen as somewhat analogous to the trioctagonal tiling with truncated square and triangle facets: The cyclotruncated octahedral-cubic
