The '''minor third''' ('''m3'''), as a concrete [[interval region]], is typically near 300{{c}} in size, distinct from the [[major third]] of roughly 400{{c}} and the [[neutral third]] of roughly 350{{c}}. A rough tuning range for the minor third is about 260 to 330{{c}} according to [[Margo Schulter]]'s theory of interval regions. ''Minor third'' in this sense refers both to the ~240–340{{c}} range as a whole, and to a specific subdivision within it (~285–340{{c}}) as opposed to subminor thirds; minor thirds flat of this are often called "subminor thirds".

The '''minor third (m3)''', as a concrete [[interval region]], is typically near 300{{c}} in size, distinct from the [[major third]] of roughly 400{{c}} and the [[neutral third]] of roughly 350{{c}}. A rough tuning range for the minor third is about 260 to 330{{c}} according to [[Margo Schulter]]'s theory of interval regions.

This article covers intervals between 240 and 340{{c}}. The outer range of this might be too extreme to call "minor thirds", but this is done so that one can find what they're looking for easily.
