135/112, the septimal wide minor third, or marvel-ptolemaic minor third, is a 7-limit interval that forms the difference between 9/7 and 16/15. It is sharp of the Pythagorean minor third by 3645/3584, i.e. a syntonic comma plus a marvel comma. This interval functionally doubles as a type of augmented second, sharp of the Pythagorean augmented second by 5120/5103. This gives rise to the name hemifamity augmented second.

This interval has the distinction of being almost half of a 16/11 semidiminished fifth – in fact, a stack of two 135/112's differs from 16/11 by 200704/200475, a comma less than two cents in size. Because of the relationship between 135/112 and 16/11, one can easily form a triad consisting of 1–135/112–16/11, to which one can then add 135/77 as a seventh.
