Buyer procurement guide
Is this product Cordyceps militaris?
No. The material presented by Jian’an Cordyceps is artificially cultivated Ophiocordyceps sinensis and must not be identified or marketed as Cordyceps militaris.
Ophiocordyceps sinensis and Cordyceps militaris are different species and are not interchangeable product names. Buyer specifications, labels, declarations, test reports and customs documents should use one consistent identity.
For this product, the correct purchasing description is “artificially cultivated Ophiocordyceps sinensis whole dried material.” Buyers should not approve a supplier only from appearance photographs. A formal species-identification document, its method, sample or batch linkage and issuing laboratory should be reviewed when species identity is a purchasing requirement.
