The '''octaphore comma''', also known as the '''enneagari comma''', is a [[small comma|small]] [[7-limit]] (also 2.3.7-[[subgroup]]) [[comma]] measuring about 5.64 [[cent]]s. It is so named because it is the amount by which eight [[28/27]] third-tones exceed the [[4/3]] perfect fourth.  It can also be found as the amount by which seven 28/27 third-tones exceed the [[9/7]] supermajor third, or as the sum of the [[garischisma|garischisma (33554432/33480783)]] and the [[septimal ennealimma|septimal ennealimma (40353607/40310784)]].
