Among them, six new species are described, namely: Lecithodendrium longitudinale sp. n., L. microrchle sp. n., L. multiglandum sp. n., L. petalinum sp. n., L. shanghaiense sp. n., and L. sinense sp. n. The six previously known species reported are: L. duboisi Saoud et Ramadan, 1976; L. linstowi Dollfus, 1931; L. macrostomum (Ozaki, 1929); L. rohdei Odening, 1968; L. semen (Kirshenblat, 1941); and L. spathulatum (Ozaki, 1929).
