Oeceoclades pulchra is a species of orchid. It is found in a wide range from Tanzania to Mozambique and in the Western Pacific.

It was previously known as Eulophia pulchra but a molecular phylogeny of the subtribe Eulophiinae published in 2014 found that this species was more closely allied with the genus Oeceoclades.[1]
