Hectorella is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Montiaceae.[1] It is monotypic, being represented by the single species Hectorella caespitosa. It is native to New Zealand.[2]

The genus name of Hectorella is in honour of James Hector (1834–1907), a Scottish-New Zealand geologist, naturalist and surgeon.[3] The Latin specific epithet of caespitosa refers to caespitose meaning tufted or turf-like, from caespes or Cf. caespititius.[4] Hectorella caespitosa was first described and published in Handb. N. Zeal. Fl. Vol.1 on page 27 in 1864.[2]
