Oghul Qaimish (Mongolian: Огул Хаймиш, ᠤᠤᠭᠠᠯ ᠬᠠᠶᠢᠮᠢᠰᠢ, Chinese: 海迷失; pinyin: Hǎimíshī, died 1251) was the principal wife of Güyük Khan and ruled as regent over the Mongol Empire after the death of her husband in 1248. She was a descendant of the Mergid tribe. However, H. H. Howorth believed that she was an Oirat, mistaking her for Oghul Tutmish, wife of Möngke.
