In, say, [[41edo]] or [[53edo]] (or other similar systems), "upmajor" corresponds to "supermajor", and "downminor" to "subminor". Here is a rough list of [[EDOs]] where this is true in regards to thirds (i.e. the (anti)diatonic major third is >370{{c}} and <415{{c}} and the upmajor third is >425{{c}} and <460{{c}}). The restriction on normal major thirds is placed to ensure that the chosen diatonic major thirds are not already within the supermajor range.

Similarly, as mentioned, [[diatonic]] thirds can be supermajor, and thus other diatonic intervals supermajor or subminor:

With our previously established supermajor range, this corresponds to a diatonic fifth of >706.25 [[cents]] and <715 cents; here are all EDOs which have that as a [[patent val]] fifth, excluding contorted EDOs (i.e. those which have the same fifth as a smaller EDO).
