Harzia is a genus of seed-borne fungus that occurs in the soil.[7][8] It has been categorized in the Ceratostomataceae family.[9] The genus Harzia originally contained three accepted species: Harzia acremonioides, Harzia verrucose, and Harzia velatea.[7] Within the genus Harzia, Harzia acremonioides is one of the most common species that can be found in all climate regions around the world.[7]

The genus name of Harzia is in honour of Carl Otto Harz (1842-1906), who was a German mycologist, pharmacist and botanist.[10]

The genus and species Harzia acremonioides, was circumscribed by Julien Noël Costantin in Muced. Simples (Paris) on page 42 in 1888.[11]
