Smardaea is a genus of fungi in the family Pyronemataceae.

The genus was circumscribed by Mirko Svrček in Česká mykologie vol. 23 on page 90 in 1969.

The genus name of Smardaea is in honour of František Šmarda (1902–1976), who was a Czech botanist and mycologist, also teacher in Brno.{{cite book | last=Burkhardt | first=Lotte | title=Eine Enzyklopädie zu eponymischen Pflanzennamen |trans-title=Encyclopedia of eponymic plant names | publisher=Botanic Garden and Botanical Museum, Freie Universität Berlin | year=2022 | isbn=978-3-946292-41-8 | url=https://doi.org/10.3372/epolist2022|format=pdf |language=de|location=Berlin | doi=10.3372/epolist2022 |access-date=January 27, 2022}}
