TRIGONAL BIPYRAMIDAL CLASS Here there is a plane of symmetry per pendicular to the triad axis. The trigonal pyramids of the last class are here trigonal bipyramids (fig. 75) ; the prisms are all trigonal prisms, and parallel to the plane of symmetry is the basal pinacoid. No example is known for this class.
