Boletus pseudosensibilis?
7/5/08
By Jordan Pond in Shrewsbury MA
I have found them growing at this spot for
years. Some had caps as large as 10". This one one has a cap of
about 1.5". I think of this as a Peach Top Bolete.
It looks like some critter put their mark on the cap.
Side view. Blue staining on stem from
handling.
Here is an older specimen with a cap of
about 3.75".
The top is still peach color. White
flesh showing through where a slug nibbled on it.
Underside. Note staining blue on the
pores (left).
