| | | Blueing bolete ID please Found this Bolete today in The Chilterns today. It was growing beneath Oak, Birch and Beech. When broken there was a very rapid colour change to blue. The flesh had an unpleasant chemical-like smell. Cap 5-6cm across. Could it be Boletus luridus?
thanks

| | | Re: Blueing bolete ID please Hi Aaron Boletus luridus has a net like pattern running down the stipe, whereas this has a 'punctate' (made up of little dots) pattern which points to Boletus luridiformis, otherwise known as Boletus erythropus
