Discorus, Antipope from 22 September 530 – 14 October 530. Pope Felix IV wished Boniface to succeed him, partially to avoid the riots that had occurred on his own accession. However, on Felix' death a majority of the electors voted for Discorus. The matter was resolved when Discorus died three weeks later, and Felix' wishes were acceded to, with his chosen candidate becoming Boniface II. Boniface forced the clergy who had nominated Discorus to sign a retraction and condemn his memory: the document was subsequently destroyed on Agapetus I's orders.

In 2001 the Vatican authorities acknowledged that the legitimacy of Discorus as Pope might be sustained. Dioskur (Gegenpapst) Dioscore (antipape) Dioszkurosz Tegenpaus Dioscurus Antypapież Dioskuros Dioskurus
