As abstract polytope ex is isomorphic to gax, thereby replacing pentagonal edge figures by pentagrammal ones resp. replacing ike vertex figures by gike ones.

Diminishing ex at the vertex positions of an inscribed f-ico results in sadi. – Diminishing likewise at the vertex positions of 2 inscribed f-icoes, which mutually are not vertex incident, results in bidex. – Double-diminishing ex at the vertex positions of an inscribed f/q-hex, i.e. chopping off (intersecting) bistratic caps, results in f-tes.
