37edo is the 10th [[no-threes subgroup temperaments|no-3]] [[zeta peak edo]], containing very accurate approximations of harmonics [[5/1|5]], [[7/1|7]], [[11/1|11]] and [[13/1|13]]. It has an extremely accurate harmonic 11, being only 0.03 cents sharp.
37edo has very accurate approximations of harmonics [[5/1|5]], [[7/1|7]], [[11/1|11]] and [[13/1|13]], making it a good choice for a [[no-threes subgroup temperaments|no-threes]] approach. Harmonic 11 is particularly accurate, being only 0.03 cents sharp.


Using its best (and sharp) fifth, 37edo tempers out 250/243, making it a variant of [[porcupine]] temperament. It is the [[optimal patent val]] for [[Porcupine family #Porcupinefish|porcupinefish]], which is about as accurate as 13-limit porcupine extensions will be. Using its alternative flat fifth, it tempers out [[16875/16384]], making it a [[negri]] tuning. It also tempers out 2187/2000, resulting in a temperament where three minor whole tones make up a fifth ([[gorgo]]/[[laconic]]).

37edo has great potential as a near-just xenharmonic system, with high-prime chords such as 8:10:11:13:14 with no perfect fifths available for common terrestrial progressions. The 9/8 approximation is usable but introduces error. One may choose to treat either of the intervals close to 3/2 as 3/2, introducing additional approximations with considerable error (see interval table below).

=== No-3 approach ===
If prime 3 is ignored, 37edo represents the no-3 23-odd-limit consistently, and is distinctly consistent within the no-3 16-integer-limit.
