Bremia is a genus of water moulds in the family Peronosporaceae.

The genus name of Bremia is in honour of Johann Jakob Bremi (1791 - 1857), a Swiss 'Kunsthandwerker' (artist wood turner) and entomologist from Zürich.[1]

The genus was circumscribed by Eduard August von Regel in Bot. Zeitung (Berlin) Vol.1 on page 665 in 1843.
