82/81, or the 41-limit Johnston comma (HEJI), is a 2.3.41 subgroup comma. It is the amount by which the octave-reduced 41st harmonic 41/32 exceeds the Pythagorean major third (ditone) of 81/64, and differs from the syntonic comma (81/80) by 6561/6560. It is significant in the Functional Just System and Helmholtz-Ellis notation as the formal comma to translate a Pythagorean interval to a nearby quadracesimoprimal (41-limit) interval. It is the parent comma for the reversed meantone clan.
