Skyttea is a genus of lichenicolous (lichen-dwelling) fungi in the family Cordieritidaceae.[1] The genus was circumscribed in 1981 by lichenologists Martha Allen Sherwood, David L. Hawksworth, and Brian J. Coppins, with Skyttea nitschkei assigned as the type species.[2]

The genus name Skyttea honours Mogens Skytte Christiansen (1918–1996), a Danish botanist (interested in microbiology, mycology and lichenology), and also a botanical illustrator.[3]
