History

• Founding: Studies in Mycology was founded in 1972 by the Centraalbureau voor Schimmelcultures (CBS), now the Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute, as a publication series dedicated to monographic studies of fungi.创刊： 《真菌学研究》于 1972 年由荷兰真菌多样性中心（CBS，现 Westerdijk 真菌生物多样性研究所）创办，是致力于真菌专著性研究的出版物系列。
• Westerdijk Institute and Elsevier: the journal is published by Elsevier on behalf of the Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute, reflecting its long-standing association with one of the world's leading fungal culture collections and research institutes.Westerdijk 研究所与 Elsevier： 该刊由 Elsevier 代表 Westerdijk 真菌生物多样性研究所出版，体现了其与全球顶尖真菌菌种保藏与研究机构之一的长期合作关系。
• Monographic tradition: throughout its history the journal has maintained a focus on in-depth monographic studies, becoming the leading outlet for comprehensive taxonomic and systematic treatments of fungal groups.专著传统： 在其历史中该刊始终聚焦于深入的专著性研究，成为真菌类群综合分类与系统学研究的领军发表平台。
• High impact: the journal has become the highest-impact journal in mycology, consistently ranking at the top of the mycology category by impact factor.高影响力： 该刊已成为真菌学领域影响因子最高的期刊，长期位居真菌学类别榜首。
