Etymology. The species is named for Dr. Pilar Haye, in recognition of her contributions to the systematics of the Bodotriidae.
Remarks.This species is most similar to the other New Zealand species that have no lateral ridges on the carapace, C. levis, C. petrescui and C. zealandiaensis. Both C. levis and C. petrescui have distinct lenses in the eyelobe, unlike C. hayeae. Cyclaspis zealandiaensis can be differentiated by the carapace being about 0.5 as high as long, and the female uropod exopod bearing 3 long microserrate setae medially. In comparison, C. hayeae has the carapace about 0.7 as high as long, and the female uropod exopod has no setae medially. The male of C. hayeae is unknown.
