In the mobile mount
Zygodiscus herlynii Sullivan, 1964
A species of Zygodiscus characterised by a transverse bar made up of two halves, each formed by two segments. The narrow outer wall remains in constant extinction, while the inner wall exhibits first-order white interference colours, with dextrogyre inclined extinction lines and length-fast (−) elongation on the distal side. The transverse bar displays length-slow (+) elongation on the distal side.
