Commas: 118098/117649, 250047/250000
This temperament is generated by a very slightly flat [[~]][[9/7]] major third, three of which minus a [[semi-octave]] period give the [[3/2|perfect fifth]]. Its [[ploidacot]] is diploid alpha-tricot.

=== Overview to extensions ===
Map: [&amp;lt;6 3 2 6|, &amp;lt;0 6 11 10|]&lt;br /&gt;
The second comma in the comma list determines how we extend it to include the [[harmonic]] [[5/1|5]]. Pogo (94 & 130) adds [[32805/32768]], supers (58 & 94) adds [[5120/5103]], echidna (22 & 58) adds [[1728/1715]], and hedgehog (14c & 22) adds [[50/49]]. Those are the [[strong extension]]s.
Wedgie: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;36 66 60 21 -6 -46||&lt;br /&gt;
 
EDOs: 72, 210, 282, 354&lt;br /&gt;
Wizard adds [[225/224]]. Harry adds [[2401/2400]]. Those split the generator in two. Septisuperfourth adds [[6144/6125]] and splits the generator in three. Stearnscape adds [[250047/250000]] and splits the period in three. Octoid adds [[4375/4374]] and splits the period in four. Decistearn adds [[3136/3125]] splits the period in five.  
Badness: 0.0905&lt;br /&gt;
 
&lt;br /&gt;
All of them extend naturally to the 11-limit via tempering out both [[540/539]] and [[4000/3993]], as well as [[9801/9800]], so that ~[[11/10]] and ~[[9/7]] add up to the semi-octave period. For strong extensions, the generator can be taken to be ~11/10, and three ~11/10's then make a ~4/3 as a result of tempering out 4000/3993, making [[10/9]] and [[12/11]] equidistant from 11/10.

The rest are considered below.
 
== Pogo ==
The pogo temperament tempers out the [[schisma]], whose amount of tempering of the fifth is just about right for the stearnsma and vice versa. It may be described as 94 & 130, and is the temperament that reconciles the difference between [[tertiaschis]] and [[countertertiaschis]], using its semi-octave period.

== Echidna ==
{{See also| Chords of echidna }}
 
Echidna adds 1728/1715, the [[orwellisma]], and 2048/2025, the [[diaschisma]], to the commas. It may be described as the {{nowrap| 22 & 58 }} temperament. [[58edo]] or [[80edo]] make for good tunings, or their vals can be added to {{val| 138 219 321 388 }} (138cde). In most of the tunings it has a significantly sharp [[7/4]] which some prefer.
 
Echidna becomes more interesting when extended to be an 11-limit temperament by adding [[176/175]], [[540/539]] or [[896/891]] to the commas, where the same tunings can be used as before. It then is able to represent the entire [[11-odd-limit]] [[tonality diamond|diamond]] to within about 6 cents of error within a compass of 24 notes. The 22-note 2mos gives scope for this, and the 36-note 2mos much more. Better yet, it relates three important 11-limit edos: 22edo is the smallest consistent in the 11-odd-limit, corresponding to the merge of this temperament with [[#Hedgehog|hedgehog]]; 58edo is the smallest tuning that is distinctly consistent in the 11-odd-limit, and 80edo is the third smallest distinctly consistent in the 11-odd-limit.
 
Like most [[diaschismic family #Diaschismic|diaschismic]] extensions, the 13- and 17-limit interpretations are possible by observing that since we have tempered out [[176/175]], tempering out [[351/350]] and [[352/351]] which sum to 176/175 is very elegant. In the 17-limit we can equate the half-octave with 17/12 and 24/17 and we can take advantage of the sharp fifth by combining echidna with [[diaschismic family #srutal archagall (2.3.5.17)|srutal archagall]], leading to a particularly beautiful temperament (one that prefers a very slightly less sharp fifth than srutal archagall). This mapping of 13 and 17 is supported by the patent vals of the three main echidna edos of 22, 58 and 80, the last two of which are consistent in the [[17-odd-limit]].

== Hedgehog ==
{{See also| Sensamagic clan }}
 
Hedgehog is a relatively low-accuracy temperament which tempers out 50/49 ([[jubilisma]], 245/243 ([[sensamagic comma]]), 250/243 ([[porcupine comma]]), and 2430/2401 ([[nuwell comma]]). It is also a strong extension of [[BPS]].
 
22edo provides an obvious tuning, which happens to be the only [[patent val|patent-val]] edo tuning, but if you are looking for an alternative you could try the {{val| 146 232 338 411 }} (146bccdd) val with generator 10\73, or you could try 164 cents if you are fond of round numbers. The 14-note [[mos]] gives scope for harmony while stopping well short of 22. A related temperament is [[#Echidna|echidna]], which offers much more accuracy. They merge on 22edo.

: ''For the 5-limit version, see [[Miscellaneous 5-limit temperaments #Wizard]].''
 
Wizard tempers out the [[marvel comma]] and may be described as {{nowrap| 22 & 72 }}. It splits the ~9/7 in two parts, which can be treated as ~[[17/15]]. The semi-octave complement of this interval is ~[[5/4]]. The [[ploidacot]] signature of wizard is diploid alpha-hexacot. [[72edo]], [[94edo]], and especially [[166edo]] are good tunings for it.

== Octoid ==
: {{Main| Octoid }}
: ''For the 5-limit version, see [[Miscellaneous 5-limit temperaments #Octoid]].''
 
The octoid temperament has a period of 1/8 octave and tempers out 4375/4374, the [[ragisma]], and 16875/16807, the [[canopic comma]]. In the 11-limit, it tempers out [[540/539]], [[1375/1372]], and [[6250/6237]]. In this temperament, one period gives ~[[12/11]], two give ~[[25/21]], three give ~[[35/27]], and four give [[99/70]]~[[140/99]].
 
The [[11-limit]] is the last place where all the extensions of octoid shown here agree in the mappings of primes. [[80edo]] is an alternative tuning for octoid in the 11-limit; though [[72edo]] does better for minimizing the average damage on the [[11-odd-limit]], 80edo damages prime 7 in favor of practically-just [[17/16]]'s, [[11/10]]'s and [[9/7]]'s. In higher limits, the mapping supported by 80edo is octopus – not octoid – as 80edo does not temper out [[324/323]], [[375/374]], [[495/494]], [[625/624]], [[715/714]] or [[729/728]].

==== Octopus ====
A reasonable alternative tuning of octopus not shown here which works well for 23-limit harmony (and beyond) is [[80edo]], which has a strong sharp tendency that can be thought of as matching the sharpness of mapping [[19/16]] to 1\4.
 
(It is perhaps worth noting, for the purpose of the 56-note MOS scale (the smallest to reach [[9/8]], thus going one generator further than required to reach every prime), that if we were to use [[56edo]] to support it, we would have to use the val 56bccddeffg (using [[wart notation]]), corresponding to flattening every prime in the 19-limit from its [[patent val]] mapping (closest [[direct approximation]]) except for 2 and 19, corresponding to these only using periods to reach.)

This is a list showing technical temperament data. For an explanation of what information is shown here, you may look at the technical data guide for regular temperaments.

The stearnsmic clan of temperaments tempers out the stearnsma (monzo[1 10 0 -6, ratio: 118098/117649), a no-5's comma of about 6.59 cents.

No-5 stearnsmic

This temperament is generated by a very slightly flat ~9/7 major third, three of which minus a semi-octave period give the perfect fifth. Its ploidacot is diploid alpha-tricot.

Overview to extensions

The second comma in the comma list determines how we extend it to include the harmonic 5. Pogo (94 & 130) adds 32805/32768, supers (58 & 94) adds 5120/5103, echidna (22 & 58) adds 1728/1715, and hedgehog (14c & 22) adds 50/49. Those are the strong extensions.

Wizard adds 225/224. Harry adds 2401/2400. Those split the generator in two. Septisuperfourth adds 6144/6125 and splits the generator in three. Stearnscape adds 250047/250000 and splits the period in three. Octoid adds 4375/4374 and splits the period in four. Decistearn adds 3136/3125 splits the period in five.

All of them extend naturally to the 11-limit via tempering out both 540/539 and 4000/3993, as well as 9801/9800, so that ~11/10 and ~9/7 add up to the semi-octave period. For strong extensions, the generator can be taken to be ~11/10, and three ~11/10's then make a ~4/3 as a result of tempering out 4000/3993, making 10/9 and 12/11 equidistant from 11/10.

Temperaments discussed elsewhere are:

The rest are considered below.

Pogo

The pogo temperament tempers out the schisma, whose amount of tempering of the fifth is just about right for the stearnsma and vice versa. It may be described as 94 & 130, and is the temperament that reconciles the difference between tertiaschis and countertertiaschis, using its semi-octave period.

Echidna

Echidna adds 1728/1715, the orwellisma, and 2048/2025, the diaschisma, to the commas. It may be described as the 22 & 58 temperament. 58edo or 80edo make for good tunings, or their vals can be added to 138 219 321 388] (138cde). In most of the tunings it has a significantly sharp 7/4 which some prefer.

Echidna becomes more interesting when extended to be an 11-limit temperament by adding 176/175, 540/539 or 896/891 to the commas, where the same tunings can be used as before. It then is able to represent the entire 11-odd-limit diamond to within about 6 cents of error within a compass of 24 notes. The 22-note 2mos gives scope for this, and the 36-note 2mos much more. Better yet, it relates three important 11-limit edos: 22edo is the smallest consistent in the 11-odd-limit, corresponding to the merge of this temperament with hedgehog; 58edo is the smallest tuning that is distinctly consistent in the 11-odd-limit, and 80edo is the third smallest distinctly consistent in the 11-odd-limit.

Like most diaschismic extensions, the 13- and 17-limit interpretations are possible by observing that since we have tempered out 176/175, tempering out 351/350 and 352/351 which sum to 176/175 is very elegant. In the 17-limit we can equate the half-octave with 17/12 and 24/17 and we can take advantage of the sharp fifth by combining echidna with srutal archagall, leading to a particularly beautiful temperament (one that prefers a very slightly less sharp fifth than srutal archagall). This mapping of 13 and 17 is supported by the patent vals of the three main echidna edos of 22, 58 and 80, the last two of which are consistent in the 17-odd-limit.

Hedgehog

Hedgehog is a relatively low-accuracy temperament which tempers out 50/49 (jubilisma, 245/243 (sensamagic comma), 250/243 (porcupine comma), and 2430/2401 (nuwell comma). It is also a strong extension of BPS.

22edo provides an obvious tuning, which happens to be the only patent-val edo tuning, but if you are looking for an alternative you could try the 146 232 338 411] (146bccdd) val with generator 10\73, or you could try 164 cents if you are fond of round numbers. The 14-note mos gives scope for harmony while stopping well short of 22. A related temperament is echidna, which offers much more accuracy. They merge on 22edo.

Wizard

For the 5-limit version, see Miscellaneous 5-limit temperaments #Wizard.

Wizard tempers out the marvel comma and may be described as 22 & 72. It splits the ~9/7 in two parts, which can be treated as ~17/15. The semi-octave complement of this interval is ~5/4. The ploidacot signature of wizard is diploid alpha-hexacot. 72edo, 94edo, and especially 166edo are good tunings for it.

Octoid

For the 5-limit version, see Miscellaneous 5-limit temperaments #Octoid.

The octoid temperament has a period of 1/8 octave and tempers out 4375/4374, the ragisma, and 16875/16807, the canopic comma. In the 11-limit, it tempers out 540/539, 1375/1372, and 6250/6237. In this temperament, one period gives ~12/11, two give ~25/21, three give ~35/27, and four give 99/70~140/99.

The 11-limit is the last place where all the extensions of octoid shown here agree in the mappings of primes. 80edo is an alternative tuning for octoid in the 11-limit; though 72edo does better for minimizing the average damage on the 11-odd-limit, 80edo damages prime 7 in favor of practically-just 17/16's, 11/10's and 9/7's. In higher limits, the mapping supported by 80edo is octopus – not octoid – as 80edo does not temper out 324/323, 375/374, 495/494, 625/624, 715/714 or 729/728.

Octopus

A reasonable alternative tuning of octopus not shown here which works well for 23-limit harmony (and beyond) is 80edo, which has a strong sharp tendency that can be thought of as matching the sharpness of mapping 19/16 to 1\4.

(It is perhaps worth noting, for the purpose of the 56-note MOS scale (the smallest to reach 9/8, thus going one generator further than required to reach every prime), that if we were to use 56edo to support it, we would have to use the val 56bccddeffg (using wart notation), corresponding to flattening every prime in the 19-limit from its patent val mapping (closest direct approximation) except for 2 and 19, corresponding to these only using periods to reach.)
