据作者对1978年以来国内外主要菌物学期刊和专著进行的系统搜集,中国大陆发表的菌物累计有2,849新种,129新变种,5,260新记录种。若加上戴芳澜编著的《中国真菌总汇》所记载的6,737种和168变种,中国大陆已知菌物计14,846种297变种。据不完全统计,香港和台湾报道的菌物种类中分别约有800种和400种在中国大陆未曾记载,因此全国总计已知菌物应为16,046种297变种。假设其中有10%为同物异名,则目前我国菌物已知种数约为14,700种,其中管毛生物界(主要是卵菌)约300种,原生动物界(主要是黏菌)约有340种,真菌约14,060种。
Publications dealing with Chinese fungal species were systematically investigated, and 2,849 new species, 129 new varieties and 5,260 new Chinese records have been reported during 1978 to 2010. "Sylloge Fungorum Sinicorum" was published in 1979, listed 6,737 species and 168 varieties based on the reports on Chinese fungal resource until 1973. So 14,846 species and 297 varieties have been found in mainland China by 2010. In addition, 2,122 fungal species were recorded in Hong Kong and 6,207 in Taiwan, among which around 800 and 400 species, respectively, were not found in mainland China so far. Until now there are 16,046 species and 297 varieties have been recorded in the Chinese territory. If 10% of them are the synonyms, the Chinese fungal species are around 14,700. Among them around 300 species are Chromista, 340 are Protoza, and 14,060 are Fungi.
