    Boletus mandarinus Ces.

  • Description

    Diagnosis: The conico-umbonate, rugulose pileus appears distinctive in the genus. Corner (1972) describes the pileus as viscid glutinous — the protologue indicates the pileus as dry, which is the state I have seen. Corner also indicated that the red color develops with age — again, this is contrary to what I have seen. Spores are alveolate-reticulate.
