C. berteroi C. darwinii C. espinosae C. gunnii C. hariotii C. nigra Cyttaria is a genus of ascomycete fungi.

About 10 species belong to Cyttaria, found in South America, Australia and New Zealand, associated with or growing on southern beech trees from the genus Nothofagus.

[1] The "llao llao" fungus Cyttaria hariotii, one of the most common fungi in Andean-Patagonian forests,[2] has been shown to harbor the yeast Saccharomyces eubayanus, which may be source of the lager yeast S. pastorianus cold-tolerance.

[3] Cyttaria was originally described by mycologist Miles Joseph Berkeley in 1842.
