The disphenocingulum is an icositetrahedron with 20 congruent equilateral triangles and 4 congruent squares as surfaces, 16 corners and 38 edges. Four edges adjoin four of the corners and five edges adjoin the other twelve corners. There are two edges in the body, each connecting 2 squares. These two edges are orthogonal and skewed .

It is the Johnson body J 90 from a series of 92 bodies named after the mathematician Norman Johnson .
