Pauahia is a genus of fungi in the family Meliolaceae.

The genus name of Pauahia is in honour of Bernice Pauahi Bishop (1831–1884), a princess of the Royal Family of the Kingdom of Hawaii and a well known philanthropist.[1] It was published in Mus. Bull. Vol.19 on page 17 in 1925 by Frank Lincoln Stevens.
