The 159edo-notation system proposed by Aura modifies the Helmholtz-Ellis notation in such a way that quarter play a central role.

The following table (under construction) shows the symbols and describes their function. The signs (- and +) in the remarks section are in relation to the main accidental (sharp, flat, ...).
