Gamundia is a genus of fungi in the family Tricholomataceae. The genus contains six species found in Europe and temperate regions of South America.[2]
The genus name of Gamundia is in honour of Irma Josefa Gamundí (nee Amos) (b.1927), an Argentinian botanist, Professor of Botany at the Universidad Nacional del Comahue.[3]
The genus was circumscribed by Jörg Raithelhuber in Metrodiana Vol.8 (2.3) on page 34 in 1979.
