A hemi-octahedron is an abstract regular polyhedron, containing half the faces of a regular octahedron.
It has 4 triangular faces, 6 edges, and 3 vertices. Its dual polyhedron is the hemicube.
It can be realized as a projective polyhedron , which can be visualized by constructing the projective plane as a hemisphere where opposite points along the boundary are connected and dividing the hemisphere into four equal parts. It can be seen as a square pyramid without its base.
It can be represented symmetrically as a hexagonal or square Schlegel diagram:
