    The authors study the conharmonic curvature tensor of almost Hermitian manifolds. This tensor is invariant under conharmonic transformations, namely under conformal transformations of the space preserving the harmonicity of functions. Some properties of this tensor are emphasized and eight classes of almost Hermitian manifolds are defined with respect to this curvature tensor spectrum. In Theorem 4 these classes are characterized and in Theorem 5 some relations between them are obtained. In analogy with the Gray curvature identities, the authors study some other properties of the conharmonic curvature tensor and define three other classes of almost Hermitian manifolds. Then, several relations between the two classifications are studied. Particular attention is given to almost Hermitian manifolds of dimension 4.
