  1. I read again all comments to one of my previous posts here: https://wildmushroomhunting.org/index.php?/topic/10757-boletus-separans/&tab=comments#comment-246086 Now it seems that most likely the earlier collection of mushrooms were indeed X. Purpureum, and this one is B. Separans. Thanks for the feedback!
  2. Dave and rben - thanks for your input.
  3. Looks like suillus family to me be based on resin dots on the stems, types and color of pore surface plus based on the photos cuticle can be removed. Pines and sticky caps match the ID as well. Great mushroom to eat, but you'd have to get dirty and remove the cuticles.
  4. I am sure I recognize bitter without a problem. I tasted t.felleus that day , it was bitter indeed. Is it possible that after 6 days in the fridge bitterness got milder?
  5. I've collected many pallid boletes at the same location that day and they all look totally different from this mushroom. Are there any bolete families with removable cuticle other than suillus?
  6. Yes, originally all stains were blue.
  7. Mixed hardwood, primarily oaks. Didn't collect a spore print, choosing instead to preserve the entire mushroom in the fridge for a week. It got too much moisture in, seems to be too late for the spores.
  8. Cup surface, stem and flesh stain yellow on KOH. Similar but weaker reaction to NH4OH. That points to B. Sensibilis, but I didn't find references to b.rubricitrinus reaction to these chemicals. X.rubellus is also a possibility. I'd rule out b.bicolor. since it doesn't stain blue instantly when cut.
  9. No reaction to potassium hydroxide and ammonium hydroxide. Flesh darkens when cut.
  10. Spore print bright yellow. No reaction to KOH, NH4OH. Both facts confirm the initial ID.
  11. Tested with NH4OH, KOH. KOH: Cap turns burgundy red, flesh dull pinkish orange, which matches A. Innixus.
  12. Taste mildly acrid. No reaction to ammonia. With KOH flesh turns yellow. Cap bleaches to brown-orange, stem - no reaction. So it doesn't match T. Rubrobrunneus.
  13. Flesh turned pink on KOH. No reaction on flesh to ammonia. No reaction on cap and stem to both reagents. That rules out b. Separans.
  14. Interesting suggestion, thank you. I will do some further tests with this mushroom (it is currently refrigerated) and will share results.
