What is Gyroelongated cupola?

In geometry, the gyroelongated cupolae are an infinite set of polyhedra, constructed by adjoining an n-gonal cupola to an 2n-gonal antiprism.

There are three gyroelongated cupolae that are Johnson solids made from regular triangles and square, and pentagons. Higher forms can be constructed with isosceles triangles. Adjoining a triangular prism to a square antiprism also generates a polyhedron, but has adjacent parallel faces, so is not a Johnson solid. The hexagonal form can be constructed from regular polygons, but the cupola faces are all in the same plane. Topologically other forms can be constructed without regular faces.
