Diuris cuneata is a species of orchid whose name is accepted by the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew but regarded as a synonym of Diuris dendrobioides by Australian authorities. It was first formally described in 1888 by Robert D. FitzGerald from a specimen collected near Cootamundra by Walter Scott Campbell and the description was published in Fitgerald's book Australian Orchids.[2][3][4][5][6]
