Description

Name in North American Boletes: Fuscoboletinus ochraceoroseus

Genus: Suillus

Genus 2: Fuscoboletinus

Species: ochraceoroseus

Common Name: “Rosy Larch Bolete”

Tells: Yellow, oft-short stem may have a ring, & is often netted above it. Yellow cap flesh smells acidic to unpleasant, & tastes acrid to bitter.

Other Information: Buff colored baby-cap soon becomes yellow (esp. at the edge), w/pink- to deep-red scales. Yellow-tan pores age to tan-brown. Stem often has reddish or brownish stains by the base. Likes Western Larch.

Science Notes: DNA testing eliminated the genus Fuscoboletinus and moved all its members to Suillus except for paluster, which has been placed (probably for just the moment) in Boletus.

Edibility: Avoid. Too bitter to eat.

CHEMICAL TESTS:

NH4OH (Ammonia): No data.
KOH: No data.
FeSO4 (Iron Salts): No data.
