Massariovalsa is a genus of fungi within the Melanconidaceae family.[1]

The genus name of Massariovalsa is in honour of Giuseppe Filippo Massara (1792-1839), who was an Italian doctor and botanist, working in Sondrio.[2]

The genus was circumscribed by Pier Andrea Saccardo in Michelia vol.2 on page 569 in 1882.
