In geometry, the snub tetraoctagonal tiling is a uniform tiling of the hyperbolic plane. It has Schläfli symbol of sr{8,4}.

Drawn in chiral pairs, with edges missing between black triangles:

The snub tetraoctagonal tiling is seventh in a series of snub polyhedra and tilings with vertex figure 3.3.4.3.n.
