Diuris nigromontana, commonly known as the Black Mountain leopard orchid, is a species of orchid which is endemic to the Australian Capital Territory. It was first formally described in 2008 by David Jones from a specimen collected on Black Mountain and the description was published in The Orchadian. The specific epithet (nigromontana) is derived from the Latin words nigro meaning "black", and montanus meaning "mountain". Black Mountain leopard orchid is only known from the Australian Capital Territory.
