Jeremy G Posted October 23, 2021 Report Share Posted October 23, 2021 Hi Folks, Any thoughts on the ID of this bolete? It looks like a Suillus of some sort...but not clear on exact ID. Pores underneath are not really staining. If any staining, its just turning tan from the yellow pores. Top was a little sticky when wet - otherwise its smooth. It was picked on the forest floor in the coast range in Oregon at around 700' elevation among hemlock and Doug Fir. Thanks. -Jeremy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted October 23, 2021 Report Share Posted October 23, 2021 Looks like a species of Suillus. I don't know the western NA species. Nut, S. tomentosus looks like a possibility http://www.mushroomexpert.com/suillus_tomentosus.html . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy G Posted October 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2021 Hi Dave. Ya, it does look like some Suillus specie, but I don't think Suillus tomentosus because my specimen is not bruising blue. Taking a little test nibble and its pretty mild in flavor. -Jeremy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 I checked this PNW bolete website but none of the Suillus described seem to fit https://www.svims.ca/council/Bolete.htm#nSui. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
