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: "Cortinarius albidus Clel. This representative of Myxacium has been described by Cleland (1933,1934) under the name above, but it has been found to be untenable since the same specific name has been used for a Friesian species, vide Lange (1938). Therefore, we propose that the Australian material be referred under the new name Cortinarius austro-albidus nom. nov.'
