Halamphora mira lacks the thickened virgae of H. elongata. Halamphora tucumana has thickened virgae near the dorsal margin, rather than near the central area. Halamphora veneta has a less strongly arched dorsal margin and smaller valves. Amphora subcapitata is very similar, but lacks the protracted ends of H. elongata.
