Lohwagia is a genus of fungi in the family Phyllachoraceae. The genus was described by Austrian-Czech mycologist Franz Petrak in 1942.[1] Lohwagia contains three species: the type L. intermedia, L. kessleriana and L. verruciformis.
The genus name of Lohwagia is in honour of Heinrich Lohwag (1884-1945), who was an Austrian botanist (Mycology), cryptogamen researcher and teacher. He was also the father of botanist and mycologist Kurt Lohwag.[2]
The genus was circumscribed in Bot. Arch. vol.43 on page 205 in 1942.
