The capsid of most polyhedral viruses is in the shape of a regular polyhedron with 20 triangular faces and 12 corners. The capsomeres of each face form an equilateral triangle. An example of a polyhedral virus in the shape of an icosahedron is the adenovirus. Another icosahedral virus is the poliovirus. Polyhedral viruses
