(Li Shizhen stated: It is acceptable not to include these items in the old catalog; however, including them serves to preserve ancient textual relics and also demonstrates the confusion inherent in the Three Grades classification system. Therefore, one need not rigidly adhere to ancient methods.
The total number of new and old medicinal substances amounts to 1,082 species.
Among them, 360 species are from *Shennong Bencao Jing* (Divine Farmer's Materia Medica) (indicated by white characters);

114 species were previously appended in *Tang Bencao* (Tang Materia Medica);
133 species are newly appended here (those appended in *Kaibao Bencao* (Kaibao Materia Medica));
194 species are classified as "Known but Unused," of which 82 are newly supplemented;
17 species are newly determined (all above were established by the Song Dynasty's *Jiayou Bencao* (Jiayou Materia Medica));
