26edo has [[2edo]] and [[13edo]] as subsets, of which 13edo is non-trivial, sharing the 2.9.5.21.11.13.17.19-subgroup with 26edo. Multiplying 26edo by 3 yields [[78edo]], which corrects several harmonics. [[104edo]] is a notable dual-5s system. [[130edo]], [[364edo]], [[494edo]], and [[624edo]] do well in approximating JI, though they are more complex.

26edo tempers out [[Fynn's comma]], which sets ~7/4 to 21\26. This is shared by several notable superset edos. Multiplying 26edo by 3 yields [[78edo]], which corrects several harmonics. [[104edo]] is a notable dual-5's system. [[130edo]], [[364edo]], [[494edo]], and [[624edo]] do well in approximating JI, though they are more complex.

26edo approximates both [[acoustic phi]] (the [[golden ratio]]) and [[pi]] quite accurately. Not until 1076edo do we find a better edo in terms of relative error on these intervals.
