Distinguishing features: Unicyclic, medium; bar divided longitudinally, darkest at 60°
Taxonomy:
Farinacci & Howe catalog pages: Z. diplogrammus * , Z. stenopus *
Distinguishing features: Unicyclic, medium; bar divided longitudinally, darkest at 60°
Morphology: Zeugrhabdotus with a bipartite transverse bar which is bright in XPL at the 0° position, darkest at 60°, but which is generally visible throughout rotation. Unicyclic rim image in XPL.
Z. bicrescenticus is very similar but with a narrow central area. [my interpretation - JRY 2017]
