Venturia is a genus of fungi in the family Venturiaceae.[1] First identified in 1882,[2] species in the genus are plant pathogens. Venturia is widespread and the genus contains an estimated 58 species,[3] or 130 species.[4] Anamorphs were historically represented in the genus Fusicladium.[3]

The genus was circumscribed by Pier Andrea Saccardo in Syll. Fung. vol.1 on page 586 in 1882.[5]

The genus name of Venturia is in honour of Carlo Antonio Maria Venturi (1805–1864), who was an Italian mycologist.[6]
