Hippasosa can be distinguished from  Hippasa by the following characters: body fatter (Figs 1, 3 A, 5 A, B, vs body slenderer, Wang et al. 2015: figs 4 A, B, 6 A, B, 8 A, B), terminal apophysis three (Figs 6 A – C, vs one, Wang et al. 2015: figs 3 A, B, 4 C, D), anterior arm of median apophysis as long as posterior arm (Figs 2 A, B, 3 B, C, 4 A, B, 5 C – F, vs longer than posterior arm, Wang et al. 2015: figs 3 A, B, 4 C, D), stem anchor-shaped (Figs 4 C, 5 G, 6 D, E vs a strong, posteriorly extended scape, Wang et al. 2015: figs 3 C, D, 4 E, G, 5 C, D, 6 F, G, or with an obviously epigynal atrium, Wang et al. 2015: figs 7 C, 8 E, F), diameter of spermathecal head almost six times width of spermathecal stalk (Figs 4 D, 5 H vs 1.5–3 times, Wang et al. 2015: figs 3 D, 4 G, 5 D, 6 G, 7 D, 8 G).</p><p>Composition and distribution.</p><p>Eleven species known from Africa, Arabian Peninsula, and Asia.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/B3BF8C2C613A5CC2BB5B661CE002CBB3	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
