[Boatanchors] darn foreign schematic symbols

[GGLL]

	Is it just one appearance or is it used in many other parts of
the schematic?.
	The component which I recall is represented as you describe is a 
polarized capacitor. But the drawing is accompanied with the explicit 
polarity indication (+ and -).
You can check here (although it's in spanish):

http://www.simbologia-electronica.com/

and in the search window (Lista índice de símbolos electrónicos) choose 
"Condensadores", then click "Ver".
