Boletes are fairly simple to ID to genus, but identifying to species can vary from straightforward to extremely difficult without microscope and spore print. It is apparently a complex of closely related species with similar looks, habitat, and flavor wherever it is found.
This specimen, what I call a “flag,” led me to another bicolor hotspot, where I found everything from pristine new growth to larvae-littered giants.I always love finding bicolor boletes. No colour change, which I thought was odd for a yellow-pore B.
Was it B. Huronensis that got re-classified?

The bolete fungi lives beneath the ground year-round and only erupts in fruit (mushrooms!) Then why do they carry their babies in pouches, smart guy? This is confusing because the mushrooms implicated were once classed as Boletus and many field guided still list them as edible. The yellow pores bruised dark blue upon handling, while the fragrant yellow flesh very slowly bruised a pale blue. And while many of the best edibles are shriveling up, there are still plenty of Russulas and Boletes painting the forest floor with their boldly colored caps.Backpacking in the Adirondacks this weekend, I pointed out a frisbee-sized bitter bolete Though their ID can be slightly tricky, their vivid primary colors, chunky stature, and divine flavor make them a standout species in any forest.

Though not deadly for healthy adults, a jack-o’-lantern dinner is likely to leave you clinging to the toilet bowl for well over 24 hours. The differences between jacks and chanterelles are obvious to experienced foragers, but can be indiscernible to beginners.
