In geometry, the pentagonal gyrobicupola is one of the Johnson solids ("J"31). Like the pentagonal orthobicupola ("J"30), it can be obtained by joining two pentagonal cupolae ("J"5) along their bases. The difference is that in this solid, the two halves are rotated 36 degrees with respect to one another.

The "pentagonal gyrobicupola" is the third in an infinite set of gyrobicupolae.

The pentagonal gyrobicupola is what you get when you take a rhombicosidodecahedron, chop out the middle parabidiminished rhombicosidodecahedron ("J"80), and paste the two opposing cupolae back together.

The 92 Johnson solids were named and described by Norman Johnson in 1966.
