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 Elsie Jean Dalyell (1881–1948), a pioneering Australian medical doctor. In 1912, Elsie Dalyell became the first Australian woman to receive the Beit Memorial Fellowship for Medical Research, which took her to the Lister Institute of Preventative Medicine in London, where she studied gastroenterology in children. She left the institute when World War I broke out in 1914 and applied for service with the Royal Army Medical Corps but was rejected on the grounds that she was a woman. She then volunteered with the Serbian Relief Fund during the typhus epidemic in Macedonia. Subsequently, she served on the Western Front in an all-female medical unit of the Scottish Women’s Hospital. In 1916, Elsie Dalyell joined the Royal Army Medical Corps when army policy changed. In 1923, she returned to Australia as an internationally renowned pathologist."
