Elemental phosphorus can exist in several allotropes, the most common of which are white and red solids.

Crystalline sulfur consists of puckered S8 rings in the shape of crowns. These can be packed together in two different ways – to form rhombic crystals and to form needle-shaped monoclinic crystals
