25/16, the classic(al) augmented fifth is the interval obtained by stacking two 5/4 major thirds, however, it gains additional isoharmonic identity from its position between 11/8 and 7/4, so it can frequently be used in conjunction with those, even in chords.

While this interval has been referred to as the classic augmented fifth or classical augmented fifth for some time, the term diptolemaic was coined on Discord by Flora Canou while discussing a proposal for a consistent naming scheme for different 5-limit intervals with Aura. Specifically, since "diptolemaic" intervals have two instances of prime 5 in their factorization, this interval is also referred to as the diptolemaic augmented fifth.
