From "puntos" [points (the mediaeval Spanish term for notes)] ?; NB: ➺ homonyms, &c.

Keys (scales) and ranges, according to Jambrina Leal, who unfortunately fails to identify the octave levels [e.g. C-c, c-c¹, c¹-c², or else]:
(1) A modal (minor): c-d-e♭-f-g-a♭-b♭-c (the 3rd, 6th and 7th degrees can be more than a quarter tone higher than shown);
(2) B natural (tonica C !): b♭+1/4-c-d-e (in practice natural)-f-g-a♭+1/4-b♭+1/4-C;
(3) No indication of name (tonica G !): f+1/4-g-a-b (in practice natural)-c-d-e♭+1/4-f-G.
NB: Example(s) to be replaced with staff-notation.
