The [[superparticular interval]] '''91/90''', the '''biome comma''' or '''superleap comma''', is a [[small comma|small]] [[13-limit]] [[comma]] of about 19 [[cent]]s. It arises in several places in 13-limit just intonation, most notably as the difference between [[13/12]] and [[15/14]], between [[13/9]] and [[7/5]], between [[7/6]] and [[15/13]], and between [[9/7]] and [[13/10]] (and their [[octave complement]]s, i.e. between [[24/13]] and [[28/15]], between [[18/13]] and [[10/7]], between [[12/7]] and [[26/15]], and between [[14/9]] and [[20/13]]).

Being a [[square superparticular|triangle superparticular]], it factors neatly into ([[169/168]])([[196/195]]).
