Inocutis is a genus of nine species of polypore fungi in the family Hymenochaetaceae.
The genus was circumscribed by Jean-Louis Fiasson and Tuomo Niemeläin 1984 as a segregate genus from Inonotus. They originally included three European species formerly placed in Inonotus section Phymatopilus,[1] a grouping of species conceived by Marinus Anton Donk in 1974.[2] Molecular data later supported the genus concept.[3][4][5] Inocutis is phylogenetically close to Fomitiporella.[4]
