In three dimensional geometry, there are four infinite series of point groups in three dimensions with n-fold rotational or reflectional symmetry about one axis that does not change the object.

They are the finite symmetry groups on a cone. For n = ∞ they correspond to four frieze groups. Schönflies notation is used. The terms horizontal and vertical imply the existence and direction of reflections with respect to a vertical axis of symmetry. Also shown are Coxeter notation in brackets, and, in parentheses, orbifold notation.
