Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
E. Jagt-Yazykova et al. 2006Ornamentation consists of strong collabral ribs, which clearly differentiate this species from the similar Palaeozygopleura (Bohemozyga) kettneri Horný, 1955, which has more delicate, and more closely spaced, collabral furrows. P. (Bohemozyga) pyritica sp. nov. also differs by the more convex shape of the whorls and deeper sutures.
