The berylisma, 1874161/1874048, is an unnoticeable comma in the 2.11.37 subgroup that is the difference between a stack of four 44/37 thirds and an octave, which is notable because 44/37 is a continued fraction convergent to the 4th root of 2.

The name is a reference to beryllium, following the tradition of naming fractional-octave temperaments after elements. However, the associated temperament with the comma is the rank-11 berylismic temperament in the 37-limit, and rank-2 berylic. in the 2.11.37 subgroup. See 4th-octave temperaments#Berylic.
