The Fungi Names Project will build on the existing Interactive Catalogue of Australian Fungi (ICAF) housed at Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria, to produce a list of all names applied to Australian fungi, arranged under the currently accepted name. For this project, 'fungi' includes both the true fungi and fungoid organisms in the Protista and Chromista. The fungi list will be the first compilation of the known fungi from Australia for more than 60 years, and is expected to include the names of around 8,000 accepted species of non-lichenised fungi.

Text: "Kordyana brasiliensis was introduced from its native range in Brazil into an Australian quarantine facility at CSIRO Black Mountain Science and Innovation Park, Australian Capital Territory (Morin et al. 2022). Since its field release in Australia in 2019, K. brasiliensis has spread across riparian habitats in rainforest and wet-sclerophyllous forests from north-eastern NSW southwards to the Dandenong Ranges in Victoria (ALA 2023; GBIF 2024; CSIRO 2023)."
