Probably a Russula, maybe a Hygrocybe, though those are young, and you will doubtfully be able to get a spore print. Please see the link posted above if you would like further guidance.

I'm not aware of a 'bolotus' genus. There is a genus called 'boletus', but your find is definitely not boletus bicolor. Moreover, boletus bicolor is not a russula, because all russula species are, well, in the genus russula...

Big difference. Russula are agarics- they have gills. Boletus are boletes- they have pores.

i can understand the confusion. the site you linked has a red russula [likewise titled] to the immediate right of thier link for boletus bicolor.
--------------------
Along a path I walk this night, clear to no other eyes than mine.
In faerie circles perchance I might, hope Elven honey bread to find.
Over stream and tangled root I leap, o'er bough and slumbering badger's keep.
Under hoary oak and willow I bound, to find such groves as can be found,
the sating mushrooms; spring's delight, as gifts from figures of the night.
