The snub trihexagonal antiprismatic honeycomb is an isogonal honeycomb that consists of hexagonal gyroprisms, triangular gyroprisms, rhombic disphenoids, and irregular tetrahedra. 2 hexagonal gyroprisms, 2 triangular gyroprisms, 2 rhombic disphenoids, and 8 irregular tetrahedra join at each vertex. It can be obtained through the process of alternating the great rhombitrihexagonal prismatic honeycomb. However, it cannot be made uniform.

Using the ratio method, the lowest possible ratio between the longest and shortest edges is 1: ≈ 1:1.13330.
