1. Dan Martin Dictionary

bhin 'du gnyis rtseg stag zil gyi 'od can la dmyigs pa gtad de. Zhi-byed Coll. III 76.1. stag zil lta bur gnas pa'o. Zhi-byed Coll. I 53.7. rtag zil la dung gi mdog re ba lta bu'o. Zhi-byed Coll. V 238.3 (here it is saying that changing the usual mind in old age is like changing the color of the rtag zil to white). SS 414.1: stag zil mdangs ser la sul mang ba dang / mdangs ser la sna ring zhing mnyen pa dang gsum 'byung bas tsha ba rgyas pa rnams thog babs su gsod cing / lus la yun ring du rnying shing zhen pa'i tsha ba rnams rtsad nas 'byin no. The dictionaries are no help with this, but my present guess is that it is some kind of quite colorful shelled sea creature with a name meaning 'brilliant tiger' which suggests that it had tigerlike stripes.
