Of these, 154 are taxonomically accepted names. At present, therichest province with more than 53 species of ostracods is Qinghai, followed by Yunnan with 42 species and Tibet with 30 species. There are still fourteen provinces in China without records, and two provinces with only one ostracod reported. These provinces are in need of immediate investigation.
