Coleophora bojalyshi is a moth of the Coleophoridae family. It is found in Uzbekistan.
The larvae feed on the leaves of Arbuscula arbuscula. They create a leafy case, consisting of five to six obliquely arranged pieces. The valve is two-sided and not compact. The length of the case is 10–11.5 millimetres (0.39–0.45 in) and the color is matte chocolate-brown although the terminal part is dark brown. Larvae can be found in June and (after diapause) again from the end of April to the beginning of May. Young larvae hibernate.
