Karschia is a genus of fungi in the class Dothideomycetes. The relationship of this taxon to other taxa within the class is unknown (incertae sedis).[1]
The genus name of Karschia is in honour of Anton Ferdinand Franz Karsch (1822-1892), who was a German doctor and botanist. He was in 1852, Professor of Medicine in Münster.[2]
The genus was circumscribed by Gustav Wilhelm Körber in Parerga Lichenol. on page 459 in 1865.
