Symmetry
    
The dual to this tiling represents the fundamental domains of [∞,5*] symmetry, orbifold notation *∞∞∞∞∞ symmetry, a pentagonal domain with five ideal vertices.
The order-5 apeirogonal tiling can be uniformly colored with 5 colored apeirogons around each vertex, and coxeter diagram: 




 , except ultraparallel branches on the diagonals.
