'''Ultramajor''' and '''inframinor''', or '''tendo''' and '''arto,''' intervals are more extreme than supermajor or subminor intervals, with ultramajor being sharp of supermajor, and inframinor being flat of subminor. For example, ultramajor thirds are sharper than about 446 cents, and inframinor thirds are flatter than about 256 cents. This region is unique as it often coincides with the opposing region from another category, for example, ultramajor seconds are often also inframinor thirds. Common ultramajor and inframinor intervals are often in the 13-limit, for example: | '''Ultramajor''' and '''inframinor''', or '''tendo''' and '''arto,''' intervals are more extreme than supermajor or subminor intervals, with ultramajor being sharp of supermajor, and inframinor being flat of subminor.
