Lignosus dimiticus is a species of poroid fungus in the family Polyporaceae found in Zaire. Its fruit body features a funnel-shaped cap up to {{convert|10|cm|in|abbr=on}} in diameter and {{convert|15|mm|in|abbr=on|1}} in the centre. The smooth, white stipe has a woody texture, and measures {{convert|8|cm|in|abbr=on|1}} long and {{convert|12|–|20|mm|in|abbr=on|1}} thick. Unlike other members of Lignosus, L. dimiticus has a dimitic hyphal system, as it lacks binding hyphae in its trama and context.
