摘　　要：Quality evaluation plays a vital role in ensuring safety and effectiveness of Chinese materia medica(CMM). Microscopic and morphological technologies can be used to distinguish CMM's characteristics, such as shape, size, texture, section, and smell, for authenticity and quality control of CMM. The microscopic and morphological applications of novel micro-technology, colorimeter, and texture analyzer for CMM identification are summarized and the future prospect is discussed in this paper. Various styles and complex sources of CMM are systemically reviewed, including cormophyte medicinal materials, fruit and seeds, pollen grain, and spore materials.Quality evaluation plays a vital role in ensuring safety and effectiveness of Chinese materia medica（CMM）.
