Index Fungorum is in two parts, the historical list of all well-defined fungus names "Index Fungorum" and the subset of these which is currently validly in use "Species Fungorum", which has a different search page. It is very important to understand the difference when using the two related sites and I added a paragraph to try to explain it. Sometimes Wikipedia editors are confused and refer to the old species names as being in Index Fungorum, but if they are not in the Species Fungorum part they are not sanctioned as current. My opinion is that fungi in Wikipedia should follow Index Fungorum. That means that they must also follow the Species Fungorum part; the main "Index Fungorum" part does not distinguish which names are currently valid.
