I think monohedro is unihedron, but I'm not finding anything for paralelohedron. Any ideas?

monohedron (or pedion) / parallelohedron (or pinacoid)
Explicación:
These are crystal shapes.

"Monohedron
The monohedral crystal form is also called a pedion. It consists of a single face which is geometrically unique for the crystal and is not repeated by any set of symmetry operations. Members of the triclinic crystal system produce monohedral crystal forms.

Parallelohedron
The parallelohedral crystal form is also called a pinacoid. It consists of two and only two geometrically equivalent faces which occupy opposite sides of a crystal. The two faces are parallel and are related to one another only by a reflection or an inversion. Members of the triclinic crystal system produce parallelohedral crystal forms."
