Looks like a Bolete to me, but one that's been attacked by a parasitic fungus; A Hypomyces species in this case I would think!

Apologies, I completely overlooked that! It commonly attacks Boletes from what some know as Xerocomus. I'm sure it attacks others, but these are most commonly targeted. However, your specimens look like they've got rather chunky stipes, so I'm probably well wrong  |

Nick is right on this. The mould usually attacks X chrysenteron family and they are difficult to identify when in pristine condition. I think I can safely say that you will not get an identification down to species. The best chance is to look in the area and see if there is an as yet unaffected fruitbody.

boy you guys are good! went to a different site today and found more but this time found x chrysenteron close by and unnafected as yet. I hadn't realised this mould destroyed the characteristic colours of the bolete I thought that it was a different type hence unable to find it in reference. many thanks for your time and the information you provided it realy helped. regards tn.
