Trienstonic clan
The trienstonic clan of rank-2 temperaments tempers out 28/27, the septimal third-tone or trienstonic comma. This equates very different intervals with each other, in particular 9/8 with 7/6 and 8/7 with 32/27. Trienstonian is at the edge of what can sensibly be called a temperament at all. In other words, it is an exotemperament.
Adding 16/15 to 28/27 leads to father, adding 256/245 gives uncle, adding 50/49 gives octokaidecal and adding 35/32 gives wallaby. Other members of the clan discussed elsewhere are:
- Sharptone (+21/20) → Meantone family
- Sharp (+25/24) → Dicot family
- Inflated (+128/125) → Augmented family
- Opossum (+126/125) → Porcupine family
- Blacksmith (+49/48) → Limmic temperaments

Octokaidecal
The 5-limit restriction of octokaidecal is supersharp, which tempers out 800/729, the difference between the 27/20 wolf fourth and the 40/27 wolf fifth, splitting the octave into two 27/20~40/27 semioctaves. It generally requires a very sharp fifth, even sharper than 3\5, as a generator. This means that five steps from the Zarlino generator sequence starting with 6/5 are tempered to one and a half octaves. The only reasonable 7-limit extension adds 28/27 and 50/49 to the comma list, taking advantage of the existing semioctave.
