We investigate the spectral properties of a two-dimensional electronic lattice that belongs to a non-symmorphic space group. More specifically, we look at the herringbone lattice that is characterised by two sets of glide symmetries applied in two orthogonal directions. We describe the system using a tight-binding model with nearest neighbors divided into horizontal and vertical hopping terms. We find two non-equivalent Dirac cones inside the first Brillouin zone along a high-symmetry paths, among other features, which react to different perturbations applied to the Hamiltonian. These perturbations break the symmetries of the lattice: we begin by placing different onsite potentials in the lattice sites. We observe annihilation of Dirac cones into semi-Dirac cones and nodal lines along high symmetry paths. Finally, we perturb the system by applying a dimerization on the hoppings. We report a flow of Dirac cones inside the first Brillouin zone describing quasi-hyperbolic curves
