Small specimens of Surirella terryi might be confused with S. bohemica due to their similar appearance, although the latter species is much smaller in size and lacks the typical twist of S. terryi. Surirella tenera has a similar valve outline and dimensions, but this taxon also lacks the twist, valves are more distinctly heteropolar and the central area along the apical axis is more pronounced and appears as a sharp siliceous ridge.
