Bechala is a genus of insects that existed during the Late Carboniferous in what is now Germany. It was first described by Jan-Michael Ilger and Carsten Brauckmann in 2012, and the type species is B. sommeri. Its type specimen was a wing (AKH 524) discovered at the Küchenberg quarry, in the Ziegelschiefer Formation. The wing measurements are 39×6 millimetres. Bechala was originally assigned to the extinct order Megasecoptera, but a restudy instead assigned it to the superorder Odonatoptera.
