49/25, the jubilismic suboctave, is a jubilisma short of the octave. As a stack of two 7/5 diminished fifths, it can be thought of as a diminished ninth. It is also called the BP eighth in the Bohlen–Pierce scale.

It is approximated by many notable tunings besides Bohlen–Pierce, including but not limited to 27edo, 34edo, 53edo and 72edo.
