The data for the different categories were retrieved from different sources or made by me:

• Platonic Solids from http://dmccooey.com/polyhedra/Platonic.html by David I. McCooey
• Prisms and Antiprisms were generated by me (they are very easy to generate)
• Archimedean Solids from http://dmccooey.com/polyhedra/Archimedean.html by David I. McCooey
• Johnson Solids from http://dmccooey.com/polyhedra/Johnson.html by David I. McCooey

• Zalgaller Solids are a selection of 28 Platonic, Archimedean and Johnson Solids that can be combined with Prisms and Antiprisms to make all convex regular-faced polyhedra. See V. A. Zalgaller, “Convex polyhedra with regular faces”, Zap. Nauchn. Sem. LOMI, 2, Nauka, Moscow–Leningrad, 1967, 5–221 http://mi.mathnet.ru/eng/znsl/v2/p5

It is quite possible that some polyhedron may belong to multiple categories, for instance, the cube is both a platonic solid and the 4-prism. A polyhedron may have been discovered multiple times by people using different generating techniques.
