Even in our decade there is still an extensive search for analogues of the Platonic solids. In a recent paper Schulte and Wills [13] discussed properties of Dyck's regular map of genus 3 and gave polyhedral realizations for it allowing self-intersections. This paper disproves their conjecture in showing that there is a geometric polyhedral realization (without self-intersections) of Dyck's regular map {3, 8}6 already in Euclidean 3-space. We describe the shape of this new regular polyhedron. © 1989 Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
