Psilocybe subaeruginosa is a species of agaric fungus in the family Hymenogastraceae described in 1927 and known from Australia and New Zealand. As a blueing member of the genus Psilocybe it contains the psychoactive compounds psilocin and psilocybin. P. subaeruginosa is a saprotrophic species, which are decomposers of organic material. Its breeding practices are similar to other known Psilocybe species practices, and it shares a similar chemical makeup despite having been transplanted to a different hemisphere than its origin.

Clitocybe paraditopa is a fungus of the genus Clitocybe. Found in Australia, it was described in 1919 by naturalists John Burton Cleland and Edwin Cheel. Fruitbodies of the fungus smell strongly of blossoms of the golden wattle (Acacia pycnantha) and sweet wattle (Acacia suaveolens). From the original description of specimens that had been found in New South Wales and South Australia, the describers suggested that it was similar in appearance to Clitocybe subditopa and thus could be called paraditopa, "comparable to [C.] ditopa".

Cortinarius sublargus is a species of fungus in the family Cortinariaceae native to Australia. It was described in 1928 by John Burton Cleland from the Mount Lofty Ranges. Cleland also described Cortinarius radicatus in 1933 from material collected in Willunga Hill, Waitpinga, Mount Lofty, Mount Compass, and Kinchina, Though Cleland regarded them as distinct, later authorities determined them to be the same species. The latter name turned out to be a homonym, having already been given to a different species. William Murrill named an American species Cortinarius sublargus in 1939, though
