Posthumous work, the first major treatment of the fungi of China available in English. It was the culmination of the work of China's most important systematic mycologist (1902-1970). It provides a fairly modern, often advanced, taxonomic arrangement, insightful and detailed descriptions, references to previous treatments of each fungus both in China and in the rest of the world, and indication of the names used in such treatments, references to the basionyms of the epithets employed, known Chinese hosts and substrata, and localities by province where each fungus was collected.
