Dave W Posted September 4, 2022 Report Posted September 4, 2022 The red and yellow boletes seen here are not Baorangia bicolor (formerly Boletus bicolor). Note how the layer of tubes is strongly depressed where it attaches to the stalk. For B. bicolor the pore surface smoothly transitions into the surface of the stalk, at least before the mushroom is past maturity. Even with an old B. bicolor, I would not expect the pores to be so deeply notched. Also, the faintly vertically striate stalk surface is wrong for B. bicolor. The one seen here is likely a species of Hortiboletus. There are several species found in North America. Some species names have been applied. But it is currently believed that the European names used are wrong, and that new species names for the NA taxa are needed. https://boletes.wpamushroomclub.org/product/boletus-rubellus/ The tannish bolete doesn't seem to show many distinctive features. But, I have a guess to offer, Xanthoconium stramineum. This is a species of southern NA. If correct, the spore print would be yellowish-brown possibly a bit rusty. Otherwise, perhaps a species of Tylopilus? For this latter suggestion the spore print would have a pinkish-brown or slightly reddish-brown color. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xanthoconium_stramineum
