| | | bolete on woodchips identification Spotted these 2 boletes at lunch-time beside the road - growing on woodchips underneath a small tree. one was quite oddly shaped.
Quite small...
Cap 60mm
Stem - 10-20mm
The stem was quite red but very short.
Any ideas - it doesn't look much like anything in the A-Z Gallery. |

Hi Karen
Until an expert arrives I will have to do. Don't use the "COMMON" names in Nick's earshot  The Yellow Cracking Bolete used to be Leccinum crocipodium but this has now been given the recommended name of the Saffron Bolete  The Yellow Bolete is Boletus junquilleus and unfortunately this specimen is neither of these
It is one of the chrysenteron/cisalpinus/porosporus(communis  group but without seeing the stipe, or knowing the internal colour and changes when cut or knowing the colour of the mycelium   it is impossible to say.
But I think it is chrysenteron

What amazes me is the amount of fungi out there  ,and I barely leave my little bit of village world
