It is associated with systems which have a precise perfect fifth, such as [[359edo]] and [[665edo]]. Tempering it out in the 5-limit produces rank-2 '''counterquectismic''' temperament. Equal tempereaments tempering out this comma include {{EDOs|359, 665, 1024, 1689, 3684, 4349, 7368, 8033}}.

The comma was named by [[Eliora]]. First name derives from comma's monzo, number 500 being D in roman numerals, and phonetic alphabet for D is "delta", to which "pi" is added to signify 314, the decimal expansion of pi. The second name is by analogy with [[quectisma]], meaning that both are the same commas that reach [[5/4]] from a different angle, with two mappings converging from opposite ends in [[665edo]].
