The '''counterschisma''' is a [[5-limit]] [[unnoticeable comma]] measuring about 1.66 cents. While the [[schisma]] is the difference between the [[Pythagorean comma]] and the [[81/80|syntonic comma]], the counterschisma, in contrast, is the difference between the [[41-comma]] and the syntonic comma, or equivalently stated, the difference between the [[53-comma]] and the schisma, making the temperament part of the [[Schismic-Mercator equivalence continuum]].
