There doesn't seem to be any reference to the existence of the listed species W. frominda anywhere else, so I looked into the source cited here (Waraitch KS. (1976). "New species of Aleuria and Wynnea fromindia". Transactions of the British Mycological Society. 67 (3): 533–536. doi: 10.1016/S0007-1536(76)80192-1.) and it seems like this is the result of a mistaken interpretation of what is written in the source, about Wynnea species from India. Since this being a mistake seems exceedingly likely, I have removed W. frominda from the species list, but as I am not a mycology expert by any means, I'm leaving this note in case I was mistaken myself.
