Datroniella tropica is a species of crust fungus in the family Polyporaceae. Found in southwestern China, it was described as a new species in 2014 by mycologists Bao-Kai Cui, Hai J. Lee, and Yu-Cheng Dai, who placed it in the new genus Datroniella. The type collection was made in Tongbiguan Nature Reserve (Longchuan County, Yunnan), where the fungus was found growing on a fallen angiosperm branch. The specific epithet tropica refers to its distribution in tropical China.[1]
