Suillus ochraceoroseus, commonly known as the rosey larch bolete,[2] is a species of mushroom in the genus Suillus. It appears with larch in early summer,[3] is edible, and similar in appearance to S. lakei.[4]

Taxonomy

[edit]

The species was first described by Wally Snell as Boletinus ochraceoroseus in 1941, based on specimens he had collected near Smith Creek in Idaho.[5] René Pomerleau and Alexander H. Smith transferred it to Fuscoboletinus in 1962.[6] In 1973, Rolf Singer transferred the species to Suillus.[7]

Description

[edit]

The cap is whitish then red, and dry and fibrillose, sometimes with buff veil remnants on the edge. The pores are yellow to brown. The stipe is yellowish with red-brown hues near the base, usually has a ring or ring zone, often hollow, with flesh staining blue-green.[3]
