'Star' Tessellations - Type 13

(click on the image for a larger version)

The above edge network is related to the familiar 4,3,4,3,3 tessellation.  In this case though the triangles are retrograde. Despite initial appearances, this tessellation is not chiral, there is an axis of reflection around the oblique lines running at 30 degrees to the horizonal and vertical in the above sample. This tessellation was not included by Badoureau, Coxeter included it but gave it no symbol. 

 I am grateful to Wendy Krieger for bringing this tessellation to my attention.

        4, ³/₂, 4, ³/₂, ³/₂
      K:-, B:-, C:no symbol

Clicking onto the vertex figures above will show the sample cell superimposed on the above network.
