Bolete help needed
    #22118249 - 08/20/15 07:32 PM (8 years, 5 months ago)

I have the National Audubon Society Field Guide to Mushrooms and the Field Guide to Wild Mushrooms of Pennsylvania and the Mid-Atlantic (I am in Maryland), and also used the bolete key here http://www.mushroomexpert.com/boletes.html, and now I feel like an idiot. I can't figure out what these are!

Can somebody recommend a bolete identification key or field guide?

(As an aside, my friends think this new mushroom hunting hobby is weird. And then they try to identify one. Ha! Not so easy for us uneducated peeps.)

Bolete 1
-Dull red cap, ~ 6” across (pic says 8. It's 6)
-Yellow Pores that do not stain when scraped
-Club shaped, whitish yellow stem
-Growing on grass between road and mixed deciduous-coniferous woods

Bolete 2
-Pink-Yellowish cap, 1-3”
-Yellow Pores staining moderately blue
-Flesh does not stain when cut
-Stem mixed yellow and pink
- Growing on grass under pines

Bolete 3
-Brick red cap 3”
-Yellow Pores staining weakly blue
-Flesh does not stain when cut
-Stem mostly red with a small band of yellow at the apex. I thought this might be significant as it is a characteristic used to distinguish b. bicolor from (pseudo)sensibilis

Spore prints from 1 and 3 might be yellowish. After 4 hours printing the paper underneath is yellow in places but I suspect these spots are pore stains not spore prints.
