Schnakenbeck's searsid (Sagamichthys schnakenbecki) is a species of fish in the family Platytroctidae (tubeshoulders).[3][4]
It was named by Gerhard Krefft (1912–1993), who named it for his supervisor Werner Schnakenbeck.[5][6]

The dorsal fin is far back, the pelvic fins behind the midpoint and the anal fin further back. It has photophores and a lateral line.[7][8]
