Fuligo leviderma is a myxomycete (plasmodial slime mould) in the family Physaraceae, producing pale, smooth-coated aethalia on decaying wood and plant litter in moist forest environments. Like other Fuligo species, it passes through a conspicuous plasmodial stage before forming the spore-bearing aethalium. Its conservation status is not evaluated.
