 GM nostr folk & Happy Saturday! 

Any bolete experts out there? I’m trying to determine the species here, but boletes are so difficult. 

Pores are a very light pink color, cap solid brown. Stem has slight netting where fertile surface meets the stem, white stem fades to a deep purple near the base. No cutting reactions, nor slicing reactions, mushroom does bruise reddish/brown after a few hours. Taste (taste & spit) is a mild nutty flavor. Spore print is also brownish/reddish.

Mushroom was growing near the forest edge on the ground around a few large maples & poplars.

 My guess is tylopilus indecisus or look up tylopilus 
 Hmmm it could be that. It’s either that or boletus separans, I think. The only thing that doesn’t quite match on the tylopilus is the stem color 
 That’s what I thought but didn’t have better idea.

There’s so many boletes, I’m no expert but love the shrooms.  The fact that it’s not bitter and doesn’t stain blue is good. Hope this helps 
 Ha I’m literally on that website right now! And yeah it passes all my edibility filters, gonna try a bite in a minute 
 700 bolete species worldwide,300 in US. Only 11 should be avoided due to toxicity, all bitter.  What part of the world are you in? 
 South Carolina, US 
 Nice, you make me want to go forage. Too much life to deal with tho.🤙 
 Same, we had 2 back-to-back hurricanes. There are new things out everyday 
 Thankful to not have hurricanes here in PNW, just lots of rain. 
 you tasted and spat out an unidentified mushroom? Didn’t know that could be done safely 
 Yeah only boletes can you do that with
