'''19/16''' is a [[19-limit]] interval, 297.5 [[cent]]s in size, the '''otonal minor third''' or '''octave-reduced 19th harmonic''', which is extremely close to the minor third of [[12edo]] (300 cents). It is an ''undevicesimal schisma'' aka ''Boethius' comma'' ([[513/512]]) above the [[32/27|Pythagorean minor third]].
