Orcadia riedeli is a planktonic marine foraminifera. It is the only species in the monotypic genus Orcadia. It was originally classified in the genus Hastigerinella. It is found in the surface water of oceans and has a cosmopolitan distribution. The phylogenetic position of this genus remains enigmatic; it was originally assigned to the family Hastigerinidae, but was later moved to Globigerinellidae, in the order Globigerinida.
