Pavoclinus mentalis was placed by Gilchrist & Thompson (1908) in the genus Cristiceps Valenciennes on account of its fully separated dorsal crest, although the same authors placed all the other South African Clinidae then described in the genus Clinus.

Pavoclinus (Labroclinus) mentalis: (a) Lateral view, female, 165 mm, East London, ; (b) Head pore system; (c) Intromittent organ of male; (d) Lateral line. Remarks. Pavoclinus mentalis was placed by Gilchrist & Thompson (1908) in the genus Cristiceps Valenciennes on account of its fully separated dorsal crest, although the same authors placed all the other South African Clinidae then described in the genus Clinus. The genus Cristiceps is Australasian and the species included in it are characterised by a high, sickle-shaped separate dorsal crest originating well forward over the eye, an elongate, very slender caudal peduncle, and a long, simple tentacle over the eye. Pavoclinus mentalis has no supraorbital tentacle, the crest originates in the usual position over the hind.
