Lecithocera cyamitis is a moth in the Lecithoceridae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1904. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.

The wingspan is about 13 mm. The forewings are pale whitish-ochreous, somewhat suffused with fuscous irroration except towards the costa. The base of the costa is dark fuscous. The stigmata are small and dark fuscous, the plical obliquely beyond the first discal, an indistinct additional dot beneath and rather before the second discal. There are some undefined dark fuscous marks around the apex and along the termen. The hindwings are whitish-fuscous.
