Oreoschimperella is a genus of flowering plants in the umbellifer family Apiaceae, native to Kenya, Ethiopia, and the Arabian Peninsula. Poorly studied, they are closely related to Trachyspermum.[2]

The genus name of Oreoschimperella is in honour of Georg Wilhelm Schimper (1804–1878), a German botanist and naturalist.[3]
