 Etymology. The species is named in honor of Sadie Mills, in recognition of her work in the NIWA collections and her unfailingly helpful and pleasant nature.   
 Remarks. The most similar species is Campylaspis sculptaspinosa, which lacks an eyelobe in the female, and has no teeth at the anteroventral corner of the carapace in both sexes. In comparison, C. millsae has an eyelobe in the female, and a distinct tooth in the female and several teeth in the male at the anteroventral corner of the carapace.
