Fomitopsis niveomarginata sp. nov. is described and illustrated from specimens originating from Changbaishan Nature Reserve, Jilin Province, northeastern China. It is characterized by annual to perennial, sessile to effused-reflexed basidocarps, with a cream-colored azonate and corky context, a yellowish brown and shining pore surface, and small, oblong-ellipsoid basidiospores. The new species is similar to Fomitella rhodophaea that has a concentrically sulcate and zoned pileal surface, smaller pores, and slightly wider basidiospores; furthermore, the latter occurs mainly in the tropical areas. Phylogenetically, the new species forms a well-supported, terminal monophyletic clade, distinct from other sampled Fomitopsis species and Fomitella rhodophaea. An identification key to the Chinese species of Fomitopsis is provided.
