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.

Etymology: "Named after Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler (1914−2000), better known as Hedy Lamarr (as a noun in apposition), an Austro-Hungarian-American film actress and inventor. During World War II, Hedy Lamarr conceived an idea to jam a radio-controlled torpedo and set it off course. The technology was not adopted until the 1960s, and the principles of this idea are today incorporated into wireless communications such as Bluetooth and GPS."

Text: "Bisifusarium hedylamarriae was originally described based on unique nucleotide position differences, without a morphological description or illustrations; hence these are provided here (Fig. 7)."
