The McCosker's worm eel[1] (Neenchelys mccoskeri) is an eel in the family Ophichthidae (worm/snake eels).[2] It was described by Yusuke Hibino, Ho Hsuan-Ching, and Seishi Kimura in 2012.[3] It is a marine, deep water-dwelling eel which is known from the northwestern Pacific Ocean, including Taiwan and Japan. It dwells at a depth range of {{convert|100|to|400|m|ft}}, and leads a benthic lifestyle; it is collected by bottom trawlers. Males can reach a maximum total length of {{convert|52.2|cm|in}}.[2]

The species epithet "mccoskeri" was given in honour of American ichthyologist John E. McCosker.[2]
