Zwackhia is a genus of crustose lichens in the family Lecanographaceae. It has six species.^[1] The genus was circumscribed in 1855 by German lichenologist Gustav Wilhelm Körber.^[2] He assigned Zwackhia involuta as the type species; this species is now known as Z. viridis.

The genus name of Zwackhia is in honour of Philipp Franz Wilhelm von Zwackh-Holzhausen (1826–1903), who was a German botanist (Lichenology and Mycology). He was also a Military Officer as well as being a landowner near Heidelberg. He was financially independent and owned large Herbarium.^[3]
