Tricot is a microtemperament. Its generator is tuned between 18/13 and 88/63, and three of them make a compound 4th. It can be described as 53 & 70, tempering out the tricot comma, [39 -29 3⟩.
This article assumes the 5-limit mapping. There are several mappings for 7-limit extension of this temperament including trimot (53 & 70), trident (53 & 229) and trillium (53 & 441).
This temperament was named by Paul Erlich in 2002[1][2].
