161414428/158203125, the naiadisma is a 7-limit comma measuring 34.8 cents. It is the amount by which nine 7/5s exceeds a stack of four 3/2s and two octaves.

Temperaments

Tempering out this comma alone in the 7-limit leads to the rank-3 naiad temperament. An obvious 13-limit interpretation of one generator is 13/10, four of which make 10/7 above an octave, and nine make 4/3 above three octaves.

Etymology

This comma was named by Xenllium in 2026, after naiad, a kind of ancient Greek water spirit.
