phosphate = PO<sub>4</sub><sup>-3</sup>
phosphite = PO<sub>3</</sub><sup>-3</sup>
Here is a good site for all of the polyatomic ions, including phosphite ion.

Ca3(PO3)3 in my book. However, to be fair about it, I looked on the web AND in The Merck Index and found CaHPO3 and it was labeled calcium phosphite. Technically, however, that should be called calcium hydrogen phosphite
