Caudal ramus 3.46–3.60 (3.54 ± 0.07) times longer than wide.
The morphology of the male paratype as in the allotype.

Remarks. Panaietis bobocephala sp. nov. differs from P. incamerata Stebbing, 1900 , P. yamagutii Izawa, 1976 , P. doraconis Uyeno, 2016 , and P. satsuma Uyeno, 2016 by having pointed spines on rami of legs 1 to 5 (vs. spatulate spines, Izawa 1976; Uyeno 2016). Panaietis haliotis Yamaguti, 1936 is distinguished from the new species by having following characters: the posterolateral corners of tergite on first pediger not protruded (vs. well-developed and protruded posteriorly); the maxilla bears three or four teeth on distal segment (vs. two teeth); leg 3 bears two setae on the third endopodal segment (vs. three setae); leg 4 bears three spines on the third endopodal segment (vs. two spines) (see Yamaguti 1936; Ho, 1981).
Attachment site. Mouth cavity and esophagus.
Etymology. The specific name of the new species, bobocephala , is the compound word of “ bob ” and “ cephala ” since the cephalosome and the first pediger of the copepod is reminiscent of a “bob” hairstyle.
Newly established Japanese name for species. Mimigai-no-haramushi.
