The current article summarizes recent changes in nomenclature for fungi of medical importance published in the years 2018 to 2019, including new species and revised names for existing ones. Many of the revised names have been widely adopted without further discussion. However, those that concern common pathogens of humans may take longer to achieve general usage, with new and current names reported together to engender increasing familiarity with the correct taxonomic classification.
本文总结了 2018 年至 2019 年期间发表的医学重要真菌命名法的最新变化,包括新种和现有种名的修订。许多修订的名称已经被广泛采用,而无需进一步讨论。然而,那些涉及人类常见病原体的名称可能需要更长的时间才能被普遍使用,新的和当前的名称一起报告,以增加对正确分类学分类的熟悉度。
