Karel Kavina (September 4, 1890 – January 21, 1948, both in Prague) was a Czech botanist.

Kavina was professor of botany at the Technical University in Prague. He worked on systematics, plant morphology and anatomy, and bryology. He published several atlases and monographs and was editor-in-chief of two botanical journals. With Alfred C. Hilitzer he issued the exsiccata Cryptogamae Čechoslovenicae exsiccatae, editae ab instituto botanico Polytechnici Pragense, curantibus Prof. Dr. K. Kavina et Doc. Dr. A. Hilitzer (1933-1937).[1]

In 1938, botanist Albert Pilát published Kavinia, which is a genus of fungi in the Lentariaceae family. The genus contains five species, and has a largely European distribution.[2] It was named in Kavina's honour.[3]
