Tetracot family
- This is a list showing technical temperament data. For an explanation of what information is shown here, you may look at the technical data guide for regular temperaments.
The parent of the tetracot family is tetracot, the 5-limit temperament tempering out the tetracot comma (ratio: 20000/19683, monzo: [5 -9 4⟩).
Tetracot
The generator of tetracot is ~10/9, and that four of these give ~3/2. In fact, (10/9)4 = (20000/19683)⋅(3/2). We also have (10/9)9 = (20000/19683)2⋅(5/2). From this it is evident we should flatten the generator a bit, and 34edo does this and makes for a recommendable tuning. Another possibility is to use (5/2)1/9 for a generator. The 13-note mos gives enough space for eight triads, with the 20-note mos supplying many more.
The name comes from members of the Araucaria family of conifers, which have four cotyledons (though sometimes these are fused).

Overview to extensions
Subgroup extensions
Since the generator in all reasonable tunings is between 10/9 and 11/10, it is natural to extend tetracot to the 11-limit by tempering out (10/9)/(11/10) = 100/99. This gives the 2.3.5.11-subgroup version of tetracot, dispensing with 7. For this, 41edo can be used as a tuning.
Since 16/13 is shy of (10/9)2 by just 325/324, it is likewise natural to extend our winning streak by adding this to the list of commas. This gives us 2.3.5.11.13-subgroup tetracot, which tempers out 100/99, 144/143 and 243/242, with the S-expression-based comma list {S9/S11, S10, S12}.
Full 7-limit extensions
The second comma of the comma list defines which 7-limit family member we are looking at. 875/864, the keema, gives monkey. 225/224 gives bunya. 64/63 gives modus. 126/125 gives wollemia. These all use the same generators as tetracot.
245/243 gives octacot, which splits the generator in halves. 3125/3087 gives dodecacot, which splits the generator in thirds. 50/49 gives weasel, which splits the period in halves.

Monkey
Monkey tempers out the keema. The keema, 875/864, is the amount by which three just minor thirds fall short of 7/4, and tells us the ~7/4 of monkey is reached by three such minor thirds in succession. It can be described as the 34 & 41 temperament. 41edo is an excellent tuning for monkey, and has the effect of making monkey identical to bunya with the same tuning.

Bunya
Bunya adds 225/224 to the list of commas and may be described as the 34d & 41 temperament. 41edo can again be used as a tuning, in which case it is the same as monkey. However, bunya profits a little from a slightly sharper fifth. An excellent generator is 141/26, giving just ~7's and an improved value for ~5, at the cost of a slightly sharper but still less-than-a-cent-sharp fifth, or even sharper yet: 17\116 with a fifth a cent and a half sharp, or 11\75 with a fifth two cents sharp. Octave stretching, if employed, also serves to distinguish bunya from monkey, as its octaves should be stretched considerably less.

Octacot
Octacot splits the difference between the monkey and bunya mappings for 7 by cutting the generator in half. It adds 245/243 to the normal comma list, and also tempers out 2401/2400. It may also be described as 41 & 68. 68edo or 109edo can be used as tunings, as can (5/2)1/18, which gives just major thirds. Another tuning is 150edo, which has a generator, 11\150, of exactly 88 cents. This relates octacot to the 88cET non-octave temperament, which like Carlos Alpha arguably makes more sense viewed as part of a rank-2 temperament with octaves rather than rank-1 without them.
Once again and for the same reasons, it is natural to add 100/99 and 325/324 to the list of commas. Generators of 3\41, 8\109 and 11\150 (88 cents) are all good choices for the 7, 11 and 13 limits.
