Preussia is a genus of fungi in the family Sporormiaceae.[1] The widespread genus contains 51 species that grow on dung or in the soil.[2]

The genus name of Preussia is in honour of Carl Gottlieb Traugott Preuss (1795-1855), who was a German (Prussian) botanist (Algology and Mykology) and Apothecary. He was from 1834 - 1855 an Apothecary in Hoyerswerda.[3]

The genus was circumscribed by Karl Wilhelm Gottlieb Leopold Fuckel in Hedwigia vol.6 on page 175 in 1867 and previously in Linnaea vol.24 on page 143 in 1851.
