Jeremy G Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 Hi Folks, Pacific Northwest - low altitude around 350' among Doug Fir and Red Cedar on the West side of the Cascades. Any idea's of what this variety of Bolete is? It doesn't appear to change colors when bruising. The top looks like the texture of a brain or dried leathery texture.

The Mushroom Whisperer Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 Xerocomellus. Probably X. atropurpureus, often identified as X. zelleri, Looks like a hint of blue staining where you gripped the stipe when picking.

Jeremy G Posted November 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 Thanks for the ID. It looks like I was impatient...because its staining more so after about an hour later. Attached is a snapshot of that. Thanks -J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
