→On various mosses, with extended scale names: Updated according to current TAMNAMS names
Line 954: Line 954:


== On various mosses, with extended scale names ==
== On various mosses, with extended scale names ==
This is an attempt to describe various mosses that I feel are worth describing, based on experimenting with these scales or for completion. This contains unofficial scale names that try to be as close to existing names as possible and are not meant to be official or standard. The following table shows single-period mosses sorted by generation, including current TAMNAMS names, named monolarge (1L ns) scales (italicized), and extended names (marked with asterisks).

TAMNAMS currently does not name monolarge (1L ns) scales, though if they're deserving of a name regardless, they can be named after their sister scale of nL 1s with the anti- prefix added.
Extended names are denoted with an asterisk. Named 1L ns (monolarge) scales are denoted using italics and are based on its sister scale with the anti- prefix added.
 
This section may change over time due to TAMNAMS names being updated. Outdated proposals are kept here for archival purposes.

=== 1L 1s, 1L 2s, and 2L 1s, and their child mosses ===
These three scales - 1L 1s, 1L 2s, and 2L 1s - have potentially too few notes to be considered true scales, hence these names are for completeness. The 2nd-order children of 1L 1s include scales already described by TAMNAMS, but also includes a gap in the form of 3L 1s (and to an extent, 1L 3s).
As of August 14, 2022, all of these scales have been named, except for 1L 2s and 1L 3s as they are 1L ns. These descriptions are kept for archival purposes.

P-superchromatic is named for its diesis being larger than a small step, where the reverse is true for p-suprachromatic.
