A neutral interval is an interval halfway between the two sizes of a MOS diatonic ordinal. The following are diatonic neutral intervals:

Neutral second
Neutral third
(Neutral/semiaugmented fourth)
(Neutral/semidiminished fifth)
Neutral sixth
Neutral seventh

The interval that separates neutral intervals from the corresponding large/small intervals is the semichroma, (L - s)/2.
