Arthrochilus laevicallus is a terrestrial, perennial, deciduous, sympodial herb with an underground tuber which produces daughter tubers on the end of root-like stolons. It lacks leaves but has between four and seven green, insect-like flowers on a flowering stem tall. The sepal is strap-shaped to lance-shaped with the narrower end towards the base, about long and wide. The sepals are strap-shaped but curved, about long and wide. The petals are curved linear, long and wide and curved. The petals and lateral sepals turn backwards against the ovary. The labellum is about long and and held above the flower. The callus is about long with its central part covered with short, bristly hair-like glands. Flowering occurs in January.
Arthrochilus laevicallus was first formally described in 2011 by Paul Ormerod from a specimen collected near Tarara on the Wassi Kussa River in the west of Papua New Guinea. The description was published in The Orchadian.
