No-threes subgroup temperaments
This is a collection of subgroup temperaments which omit the prime harmonic of 3.
Overview by mapping of 5
Classified by focusing on the mapping of 5th harmonic, similar to Rank-2 temperaments by mapping of 3.
- For no-fives, see #No-threes-or-fives subgroup temperaments.
- French decimal and trader have a ~2/1 period and ~5/4 generator. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the 2.5 subgroup and mapped intervals.
- Ostara, movila and vengeance have variantly expressed generators, three of which give the ~5/2.
- Insect has a ~55/32 generator, three of which give the ~5/1.
- Frostburn has a ~28/25 generator, four of which give the ~8/5.
Others have a more complex mapping of 5.

Rainy
Three generators make an 8/7; five generators make a 5/4. This is the no-threes version of tertiaseptal (and valentine). Rainy is notable theoretically as it equates (2/1)/(5/4)3 (128/125, the lesser diesis) with (2/1)/(8/7)5 (the 2.7-subgroup cloudy comma, which is similar to the 2.5-subgroup lesser diesis in that tempering it out tunes the 8/7 about 8.8 ¢ sharp, while tempering out 128/125 similarly sharpens the 5/4 by about 13.7 ¢). By tempering out their difference, stacked 5s and stacked 7s become easier to navigate, using the general-purpose diesis to simplify clusters. (Note that this analysis assumes a lattice-based conceptualization of JI which is often called "stacking-based"; see taxonomies of xen approaches.)
A highly notable tuning of rainy not shown here is 311edo, which is 140+171 so tuned between them.

French decimal
Conceived upon the fact that 1789edo has an excellent 5/4, and uses it as the generator. This rings particularly true for the French attempts to decimalize a lot more things than we are used to today. Using the maximal evenness method of finding rank-2 temperaments, a 1525 & 1789 temperament is obtained.

Ostara
Ostara is a temperament that is derived from 93 & 524 solar calendar leap rule scale. It was initially defined by taking the 2.7.13.17.19 subgroup, but it can also be intepreted in general no-threes 19-limit.
Ostara can also refer to a collection of temperaments which temper out 16807/16796.

Tricesimoprimal miracloid
Described as the 52 & 1789 temperament in the 2.5.7.11.19.29.31 subgroup, with harmonics specifically selected for 52edo and 1789edo. Its generator is 31/29, which is also close to the secor. Since it is conceived as the temperament in the above specific subgroup, it makes no sense to name it for smaller subgroups. In terms of microtempering, a circle of 52 generators is essentially a barely noticeable well temperament for 52edo.

Higher 2.5 temperaments
Temperaments discussed elsewhere include:
- Jacobin superfamily (6656/6655) → The Jacobins
Movila
This temperament has a structure very similar to mavila but is somewhat more accurate because the generator is a flat 11/8 rather than a sharp 4/3. The major third is still ~5/4, but the minor third is now ~64/55 instead of ~6/5.
