The marasmioid fungus Marasmius midnapurensis (Marasmiaceae, Basidiomycota) is described as a new species from India. Analysis of the internal transcribed spacer-1 region (ITS1) of the nuclear ribosomal RNA gene suggests that M. midnapurensis is phylogenetically distinct from closely related species and confirms its position within Marasmius sect. Sicci. Data on macro- and microscopic characters, habitat and comparisons with morphologically similar species are provided.
