A separate genus, Isipingus J.L. Barnard & Karaman, 1987, was proposed for L. epistomata by J.L. Barnard & Karaman (1987: 864), on the basis of two, presumably autapomorphic, characters: very pointed epistome and enlarged coxa 1, and one presumably plesiomorphic character, the multispinose lobes of the telson (as in the Asian Liljeborgia of the group 3). Since the available descriptions of the species are very fragmentary, its precise systematic position remains unresolved. However, there are so far no objective reasons to remove it from the genus Liljeborgia, as currently defined. For practical reasons, Isipingus is here provisionally considered as a subgenus of Liljeborgia. If Isipingus is revalidated as a full genus in the future, after a careful re-description, the correct name of its type species would be Isipingus epistomatus and not Isipingus epistomata, because Isipingus is masculine (J.L. Barnard & Karaman, 1987: 864) and epistomatus is clearly an adjective.
