Zubchatyy Ice Shelf (67°13′S 49°5′E) is a small ice shelf which borders the south side of Sakellari Peninsula in Enderby Land. Plotted by Russian cartographers from air photos taken by the Soviet Antarctic Expedition, 1961-62. The Russian name means "toothed" and refers to the serrated nature of the ice front when viewed in plan.
