摘　　要： 斗草(文斗)是中国古代女子重要的益智游戏,既可愉悦身心,又可学习自然和文化知识。斗草游戏中对仗的植物名字体现着语言艺术的魅力,蕴涵着古老的自然知识和民间智慧,承载着中国源远流长的传统博物学文化。同时,它展现了传统博物学中自然知识与文学艺术的紧密互动,古典文化中的诗词歌赋、小说、绘画等对斗草多有涉及,典型的如《红楼梦》《镜花缘》《秦淮女儿斗草篇》等。借助植物考据学,斗草游戏里古老的自然知识与现代科学可以对话,传统博物学文化的图景也得以展现。在这个图景中,女性是重要的参与者,也是自然和文化知识的传播者。 The verbal competition of doucao（ competition by playing plants） was an important edutainment for young women in ancient China.
