Fungi, not funga - it’s masculine not neuter.

[uoaei]

funga is the name of the kingdom, a recent change to align with the now-accepted designations flora and fauna (and of course bacteria and protista). Fungi is the plural when referring to organisms (i.e., instances), I am rather referring to the kingdom (i.e., the category).

Seems like it has no historical usage[0] and is not a valid form of fungus[1], from what I can tell. Kind of a weird choice.

Thanks for the clarification. It’s still sounding ugly, like if someone decided that the kingdom of mugroomz would include multiple mushrooms, but I guess it’s too late to complain
