I've had this marble queen pothos for a bit, and this is the first leaf it has put out since I brought it home.
Is this just a very pale marble queen leaf, or is this a snow queen?
The plant is on a bookshelf across the room from a south facing window. So it gets plenty of bright, indirect light. I bought it online so I don't know what kind of setup it had before.

Snow queens are just marble queens with whiter variegation
She’s beautiful 😍
Seems like a standard marble queen based on the other leaves. The leaves can come out this light color and as they mature will turn darker like the others. The lighting/nutrient conditions can also factor into leaf coloration so you can get random leaf changes based on the lighting the plant experienced before deciding to send out a new leaf. The lighting sounds about right for her from your description. She seems happy and healthy.😊
higher variegation is a great sign of how happy the plant is, and yours seems to be doing well! my marble queen started out with the darker foliage like yours but over time it replaced all of its original leaves with the more white and cream colored ones. just goes go show that your plant is thriving!
Snow queen and marble queen refer to the exact same cultivar. All marble queens are snow queens, and all snow queens are marble queens. We just call them snow queen when their variegation increases. Give the plant good light and every vine will look like that
