In four-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the stericantitruncated tesseractic honeycomb is a uniform space-filling honeycomb. It is composed of runcitruncated 16-cell, cantitruncated tesseract, rhombicuboctahedral prism, truncated cuboctahedral prism, and 4-8 duoprism facets, arranged around an irregular 5-cell vertex figure.

The , , Coxeter group generates 31 permutations of uniform tessellations, 21 with distinct symmetry and 20 with distinct geometry. The expanded tesseractic honeycomb (also known as the stericated tesseractic honeycomb) is geometrically identical to the tesseractic honeycomb. Three of the symmetric honeycombs are shared in the family. Two alternations (13) and (17), and the quarter tesseractic (2) are repeated in other families.
