In addition to the true MOS form, LssssLssss, these scales also exist in a near-MOS form, LsssssLsss, in which the period is the only interval class with more than two flavors. In the case of the decatonic scale, LssssLssss is called the "symmetric" scale and LsssssLsss is called the "pentachordal" scale (because it has two identical "pentachords" in the same way that the diatonic scale has two identical tetrachords).

~~== Names ==~~

~~The [[TAMNAMS]] system calls this pattern '''pajaroid''' (named after the abstract temperament [[pajara]]).~~

== Notation ==

The notation used in this article is ssLssssLss = JKLMNOPQRSJ unless specified otherwise. We denote raising and lowering by a chroma (L − s) by & "amp" and @ "at". (Mnemonics: & "and" means additional pitch. @ "at" rhymes with "flat".)
