Cephalis flat, cap-shaped, hyaline, without pores. Thorax nearly hemispherical, with three transverse rows of small circular pores. Each following joint (each abdominal joint) only with a single row of small pores. The constricted mouth of the last joint only one-third as broad as the middle part of the shell. (Very similar to Lithomitra eruca Pl. 79, fig. 3.)

Editors' Notes
There was no illustration of this species in Haeckel (1887)
Haeckel listed Lithocampe polycola under the subgeneric name Lithocampium, but did not include the subgeneric name in the species name.[comment from RadWorld database]
