Compare Halamphora latecostata
Compare
Halamphora latecostata has a lower dorsal stria density than H. coffeaeformis, H. sabiniana, and H. acutiuscula. Halamphora latecostata is wider than H. sabiniana but narrower than H. turdiga. There is a noticeable stria density gradient from valve center to apex in H. latecostata which is absent in both H. coffeaeformis and H. turgida. Halamphora acutiuscula has a longitudinal line dorsally offset from the axial area. Halamphora subtilis is much smaller in size.
