MushroomDan Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 Not a Boletus. Looks like one of many Leccinum sp. The scabber stalk gives it away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joehomie Posted October 31, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 Thanks MushroomDan. Was the first one that I found that looked like it grew unside down. The stem side looks like the cap side on others near it,and the soft side was the top. I did find normal birch bolete near it Top side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MushroomDan Posted November 1, 2018 Report Share Posted November 1, 2018 The normal birch bolete you found is also likely a Leccinum sp. It's normal for some to funnel out. If stalk is "scabber" it's usually a Leccinum. I don't know what Leccinum sp. you found. Maybe someone else can help you. I bet Dave or Eatbolete know. Good luck.

eat-bolete Posted November 1, 2018 Report Share Posted November 1, 2018 Sure looks like Leccinum like Dan said. Which one exactly not sure, possibly L. holopus var. americanum. It is quite common to find boletes inverted like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted November 1, 2018 Report Share Posted November 1, 2018 My guess is this is a species in the Leccinum scabrum group. The upturned pore surface is not all that uncommon for post-mature ones, especially when there's been plenty of rain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
