Abstract: Objective This study aimed to identify the species, quantities, and distribution of airborne allergenic pollens in the urban district of Hohhot city. Methods Daily airborne pollen was monitored using the Durham gravitational method from March 1 to October 31, 2018, and the species of airborne allergenic pollens were identified by optical microscopy. Results A total of 61,308 grains of airborne allergenic pollen were collected over 8 months. The peak of airborne allergenic pollen grains appeared from March to May and from August to September. A total of 18,420 pollen grains(30.05%)were collected in April and 20,064(32.72%)in September. In addition, the total number of pollen grains in the autumn peak increased than that in the spring. There were significant species and genus differences in pollen distribution. In spring, the main pollen species were birch(28.64%), clove(7.36%), and pine(6.71%),whereas in autumn, the main pollen genera were Artemisia(28.66%), Gramineae(17.44%), and Rosaceae(3.07%). Conclusion In 2018, the airborne allergenic pollen distribution showed two peaks, and the dominant species and genera at the peaks were birch and Artemisia.
