The 16-3 gyrochoron, also known as gyrus 16, is a convex isochoric polychoron and member of the gyrochoron family with 16 identical cells. It can also be constructed as the 16-5 gyrochoron.

Each cell of this polychoron has bilateral symmetry, with 2 mirror-symmetric decagons, 2 mirror-symmetric hexagons, 4 kites, and 4 isosceles triangles for faces.
