- This is the monoclinic structure of (Nishimura, 2008). (Masese, 2015) find an alternative structure in space group $P2_{1}/c$ #14, a structure that was explicitly rejected by (Nishimura, 2008).
- Li$_{2}$FeSiO$_{4}$ is also known to exist in the orthorhombic $\beta$–Li$_{3}$PO$_{4}$ and Li$_{2}$CdSiO$_{4}$ structures. (Boulineau, 2010).
