In geometry, the elongated dipyramids are an infinite set of polyhedra, constructed by elongating an n'-agonal bipyramid (by inserting an n-agonal prism between its congruent halves).

There are three elongated dipyramids that are Johnson solids made from regular triangles and squares. Higher forms can be constructed with isosceles triangles.
