The dimipent family tempers out the major diesis aka diminished comma, 648/625, the amount by which four 6/5 minor thirds exceed an octave, and so identifies the minor third with the quarter-octave. Hence it has the same 300-cent 6/5-approximations as 12edo.

Cohedim

This temperament has been documented in Graham Breed's temperament finder as hemidim, the same name as 11-limit 4e & 24 and 13-limit 4ef & 24. For 11-limit 8bce & 12 temperament, cohedim arguably makes more sense.
