Halleorchis is a genus of terrestrial orchids containing only one species, Halleorchis aspidogynoides, which is an endangered species native to Central Africa.
Halleorchis aspidogynoides is known only from two populations: one at Belinga in Gabon, and one at Lolodorf in Cameroon. A 2017 assessment for the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species estimated the total area of occupancy of this species to be 8 km2 (3.1 sq mi). It grows at the base of damp rocks in humid forests at altitudes of 850–950 m (2,790–3,120 ft).
