Sensamagic clan
The sensamagic clan tempers out the sensamagic comma, 245/243, a triprime comma with no factors of 2, ⟨0 -5 1 2] to be exact. Tempering out 245/243 alone in the full 7-limit leads to a rank-3 temperament, sensamagic, for which 283edo is the optimal patent val.
BPS
The BPS, for Bohlen–Pierce–Stearns, is the 3.5.7 subgroup temperament tempering out 245/243. This subgroup temperament was formerly called the lambda temperament, which was named after the lambda scale.
Subgroup: 3.5.7

Overview to extensions
The full 7-limit extensions' relation to BPS is clearer if the mapping is normalized in terms of 3.5.7.2. In fact, the strong extensions are
- #Sensi
- #Cohemiripple
- Hedgehog, {50/49, 245/243} → Porcupine family
- Fourfives, {245/243, 235298/234375} → Fifive family
The others are weak extensions. See
- Father, {16/15, 28/27} → Father family
- Sidi, {25/24, 245/243} → Dicot family
- Godzilla, {49/48, 81/80} → Meantone family
- Superpyth, {64/63, 245/243} → Archytas clan

Sensi
Sensi tempers out 126/125, 686/675 and 4375/4374 in addition to 245/243, and can be described as the 19 & 27 temperament. It has as a generator half the size of a slightly wide major sixth, which gives an interval sharp of 9/7 and flat of 13/10, both of which can be used to identify it, as 2.3.5.7.13 sensi (sensation) tempers out 91/90. 22/17, in the middle, is even closer to the generator. 46edo is an excellent sensi tuning, and mos scales of 8-, 11-, 19- and 27-tones are available. The name "sensi" is a play on the words "semi-" and "sixth."

Pycnic
The fifth of pycnic in size is a meantone fifth, but four of them are not used to reach 5. This has the effect of making the Pythagorean major third, nominally 81/64, very close to 5/4 in tuning, being a cent sharp of it in the POTE tuning for instance. Pycnic has mos of size 9, 11, 13, 15, 17… which contain these alternative thirds, leading to two kinds of major triads, an official one and a nominally Pythagorean one which is actually in better tune.

The alternative extension amigo (43 & 46) tempers out the same 5-limit comma as the magus, but with the starling comma (126/125) rather than the sensamagic tempered out.
