This is one possible naming and organization system for intervals of [[Porcupine|porcupine]] temperament. It's based on the porcupine[7] scale, or equivalently on the [[val|val]] <7 11 16|.
These are the intervals found in porcupine temperament.


In [[22edo|22edo]], all the neighboring intervals on this chart that are shown as about 20 cents apart are actually the same. For example, the augmented third (9/7) and the diminished fourth (14/11) are both the same interval (8\22) in 22edo. This corresponds to 99/98 being tempered out in 22edo.

In [[15edo|15edo]], on the other hand, the intervals that are shown as about 40 cents apart are actually the same. For example, the augmented third (9/7), is now the same as a '''minor''' fourth (4/3) rather than a diminished one. That is because 28/27 is tempered out in 15edo.
