	The '''punctisma''', '''43904/43875''' is the difference between three [[15/14]] semitones and a [[16/13]] neutral third. Its tempering out is characteristic of the 10n family of edos, which approximate both of these intervals within a fraction of a cent. Surprisingly, it is also tempered out in [[159edo]], [[171edo]], and [[311edo]]. It was named by [[User:Jerdle\|Jerdle]] and [[Aura]] from Latin [[Wiktionary: punctum #Latin\|''pūnctum'']] ("point") based on both its relation to the 10n family of EDOs as well as its small size.
