Sakamenichthys is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish that lived during the Early Triassic epoch in what is now Madagascar.^[3]^[1] Fossils were recovered from beds of the Middle Sakamena Formation of the Beroroha basin in the southern part of the island.^[3]

Sakamenichthys was first assigned to the family Catopteridae, but was later tentatively referred to the order Redfieldiiformes.^[2]
