There are infinite possible intervals (both tempered and just), even within a single [[2/1|octave]]. It can be helpful to group these intervals into a finite number of '''interval regions''' or '''interval categories'''.

Many interval naming systems extend the diatonic interval names by adding new [[interval qualities]] to the usual set. While some systems preserve the fifth-based structure entirely, other systems define regions based on the proximity to the intervals associated with the diatonic intervals, which are then divided into finer subregions.

When describing interval regions in terms of size relative to a (possibly tempered) fifth, it leads to the system of [[Latitude|latitude and medial intervals]].
