He was president of the British Mycological Society where he organised the first international congress of mycologists. An entire class of aquatic fungi within the Pleosporales, the Ingoldian fungi, were named after him, although recent DNA studies are changing the scientific names. Academic career Terence Ingold was born at Blackrock, Dublin and attended school in Bangor, County Down. He studied at Queen's University Belfast, Queen's University in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and in 1926 won a First in his bachelor's degree in botany, with emphasis on mycology. He made a short study (in the style of Arthur Henry Reginald Buller, A.H.R.
