Bobbichthys is an extinct genus of marine ray-finned fish that lived in what is now Chile during the Oxfordian stage of the Late Jurassic epoch.[1][2][3] It was a member of the Varasichthyidae, a family of potentially crossognathiform fish.[4][5][6]

It was named after paleoichthyologist Bobb Schaefer (1913-2004).[2]
