| Ptolemaic Minor with Pythagorean Minor Seventh
| D, F↑, A, C
| 0, 42, 93, 132
| I
| 90:108:135:160
| This dissonant tetrad is perhaps best considered a cross between a suspension and a triad owing to the dissonance of the wolf fifth
|-
| Ptolemaic Major Seventh
| D, F#↓, A, C#↓
| 0, 51, 93, 144
| b↑II
| 8:10:12:15
| This tetrad is likely to decompose into a voicing variation on the corresponding triad if the same scale degree is used as a chord root multiple times in a row
