15edo has some close approximations including 22/21 to one step and 77/64 to four steps.

Temperaments discussed elsewhere include quindecic, pentadecal, slendscape, and phosphorus.

Pentadecoid

In pentadecoid, the period (1\15) is given an interpretation of 22/21, and four of them represent the keenanismic minor third, 77/64 = (147/128)⋅(22/21). The temperament is named for an analog of its relating temperaments, decoid (130 & 140) and triacontoid (120 & 150). Triacontoid is a weak extension of pentadecoid, as well as slendscape (255 & 270).
