Alpinocottus szanaga is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish belonging to the family Cottidae, the typical sculpins. It is found in Mongolia and Russia.

This species was first formally described in 1869 by the Polish naturalist Benedykt Dybowski with its type locality given as the Onon River in the Amur River drainage basin of Russia. The specific name szanaga is derived from Szanaga-sagasu, meaning "spoon fish" the Buryat dialect word for this fish in the Amur basin.
