Caprettia is a genus of lichenized fungi in the family Monoblastiaceae.[2] The genus was circumscribed by Augusto Chaves Batista and Heraldo da Silva Maia in 1965, with Caprettia amazonensis assigned as the type species.[3]

The genus name of Caprettia is in honour of Corrado Capretti (1915–1960), an Italian botanist and professor at University of the Andes (Venezuela) in 1956.[4]
