This interval is the 31st-partial chroma (31-limit formal comma) in [[Ben Johnston's notation]], denoted simply with the number "31", while its reciprocal is denoted as <span style="display: inline-block; transform: rotate(180deg)">31</span> (a turned 31). If the base note is C, then 31/16 is represented by C–B31.
