Oscillatoria rupicola es una cianobacteria filamentosa de la familia Oscillatoriaceae que forma tapetes y biopelículas sobre superficies rocosas en arroyos de agua dulce, cascadas y sustratos terrestres húmedos. Sus tricomas cilíndricos carecen de heterocistos y se mueven mediante la motilidad de deslizamiento oscilatoria que da nombre al género. Contribuye a la producción primaria basada en biopelículas en hábitats epilíticos.
