Bourgoin, Plate 149 (bottom)

• The symmetry group of the tiling is *442 (p4m).
• All the internal angles of the constituent polygons are a multiple of 11.25°.
• Contains one regular four-pointed star polygon with vertex angle of 67.5° - composed of kites.
• Contains one regular 8-pointed star polygon with vertex angle of 90° - composed of kites.
• There are three non-regular reflective tiles (including 2 kites) and three reflective pairs.
• The tiling does not satisfy the two-colour condition.
• The tiling is not edge-to-edge.
• As drawn, contains about 534 polygons.
