种类和分类系统迄今记载的冬虫夏草有303种,加上其变种、品种、完全型的其他属的虫草,大约是330种左右。还有不完全型的虫草(蝉花、蜘蛛棒束霉,长虫草等)大约70种左右,总共400种。可是,这一些不一定都是认识了的。如果把300多种虫草加以整理的话,那么大概会减少到200种左右。此外,我手头待发表的虫草有30～50种左右。除我之外,加上其他研究者的虫草,不久将来整理出来的大约有250种左右。 There are 303 species of Cordyceps sinensis recorded so far and about 330 species of Cordyceps of other genera, varieties, and complete types. There are incomplete type of Cordyceps (cicadas, spider moth, Cordyceps, etc.) about 70 species, a total of 400 species. However, some are not necessarily recognized. If more than 300 kinds of Cordyceps to be collated, then probably reduced to about 200 kinds. In addition, there are 30 ~ 50 kinds of Cordyceps I’m about to publish on hand. In addition to me, plus other researchers Cordyceps, in the near future sort out about 250 or so.
