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 Joan Maie Freeman (1918−1998), an Australian physicist, whose reasearch led to unmasking the building blocks of the universe. Joan Freeman investigated the beta decay of certain isotopes, which had a foundational part in establishing the electroweak theory in the1970s. In 1976, Joan Freeman became the first woman to be awarded the Ernest Rutherford Medal, together with her colleague, Roger Blin-Stoyle, for their contributions ot nuclear physics. Joan Freeman remains the only woman to have been awarded the Ernest Rutherfod Medal since its inception in 1946."
