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 Dame Margaret Blackwood (1909-1986), a distinguished Australian botanist and plant geneticist. Margaret Blackwood lectured at the University of Melbourne for most of her career, becoming its first female deputy chancellor in 1980. In 1989, Margaret Blackwood was commemorated by Phyllosticta blackwoodiae, an Australian leaf-inhabiting fungus found on Tristania grandis in Western Australia."
