Cokeromyces recurvatus is a pathogenic fungus.^[3]^[4] Described as a new species in 1950, it was isolated from rabbit dung collected in Illinois.^[2]

The genus name of Anzia is in honour of William Chambers Coker (1872 – 1953), was an American botanist and mycologist.^[5]

The genus was circumscribed by Leland Shanor in Mycologia Vol.42 (Issue 2) on page 272 in 1950.

It appears similar to Coccidioides immitis .^[6]
