Hadropogonichthys is a monospecific genus of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family Zoarcidae, the eelpouts.

The only species in the genus is Hadropogonichthys lindbergi which is in the northwestern Pacific Ocean.

[2] The genus was first proposed in 1882 by the Soviet zoologist Vladimir Vladimirovich Fedorov when he described Hadropogonichthys lindbergi from the Kuril Islands.

[3] In 2004, a second species was described, H. leptopus from Japan but this has not yet been included in Fishbase.
