This is an attempt to describe various mosses that I feel are worth describing, even for completion. This contains unofficial scale names that try to be as close to existing TAMNAMS names as possible. The following table shows single-period mosses sorted by generation, including TAMNAMS names, named monolarge (1L ns) scales (italicized), and extended names (marked with asterisks).

TAMNAMS currently does not name monolarge (1L ns) scales, though if they're deserving of a name regardless, they can be named after their sister scale of nL 1s with the anti- prefix added.

These three scales - 1L 1s, 1L 2s, and 2L 1s - have potentially too few notes to be considered true scales, hence these descriptions are for completeness. The 2nd-order children of 1L 1s include scales already described by TAMNAMS, but also includes a gap in the form of 3L 1s (and to an extent, 1L 3s).
