Recently, Reese et al. (2008), Lignières & Georgeot (2008) and Lignières & Georgeot (2009) showed that the frequencies of low-degree acoustic modes in rapidly rotating stars, also known as ``island modes'', follow an asymptotic formula, the coefficients of which can be deduced from ray dynamics. We investigate how this asymptotic behaviour is affected by μ gradients by comparing pulsation spectra from models with and without such a discontinuity.
