'''50/49''', the '''small septimal diesis''' (a.k.a. '''small septimal sixth-tone''' or '''septimal tritonic diesis'''), is a [[7-limit]] [[medium comma]]. It is the only [[superparticular]] [[comma]] in the 7-limit aside from [[126/125]] and [[4375/4374]] which has a numerator which is neither square nor [[triangular number|triangular]], meaning it is not the difference between septimal superparticular rations with numerators differing by either one or two; instead, {{nowrap| 50/49 = ([[10/7]])/([[7/5]]) }}.
