Hard to narow it down from those webcam pics, but it is a red pored bolete...almost certainly poisonous.

"...I found dozens of single specimens.  That's what I call hunting.  There are only a few "good" hunters here, even now.  You're certainly in that group.  I would imagine if we hunted together we'd find our styles are similar."

RIP Matt, your friendship and your contributions to the world of fungi will be missed. Unfortunately we never got to hunt together.

I'm not 100% certain it's Boletus satanas, but it's certainly not worth fooling with. Whether it is or not, it definitely won't get you high, unless you consider vomiting and diarrhea being high. In general, boletes with red or orange pores which bruise blue (especially instantly as you described) are poisonous.

Happy mushrooming!

The idea of a "dangerous lookalike" to a poisonous mushroom is amusing. Something I'd never considered before. The only reason I don't feel 100% is because the stem doesn't look nearly as bulbous as the stems in every photo I've seen of Boletus satanas. For example, this one at mykoweb. Boletus erythropus sometimes has a fairly pale cap, red pores, bruises blue very quickly, and doesn't have an incredibly bulbous base. David Arora lists several similar species under B. erythropus. Also, I'm not entirely certain about the exact colors in some of the photos, especially the first few, so I try to not rely on them too much. I also can't verify that the stem is reticulate in the photos, and that is an important character for B. satanas.


I hunted this morning for about 4 hours and could only come up with about 20 species. A couple places I visited which are exceptionally wet and I hoped for mushrooms at were unproductive.

I spent about 2 1/2 hours assisting Dr. States in identifying specimens this afternoon. We had 28 when we quit for the evening, but we have at least 2 or 3 times that many yet to go through. Tomorrow Vera Evenson will be helping (along with a few others) and I expect we will get 100 - 125 species total. Fortunately, a guy who works for the Forest Service at a research station above Boulder showed up with an impressive haul. He's the only person this year who's found Russulas or more than 1 or 2 Cortinarius. I haven't seen a bolete (including Suillus) or an Amanita this year - and they are normally major groups among what is found.

I'll post a thread with some photos after it's over - but probably not tomorrow. It's gonna be a long day tomorrow, and my wife has promised we'd do some astronomy (Perseid meteors!) tomorrow night. I'll try to get some stuff up Monday.

Happy mushrooming!

i eat bay bolettesoften, they dont accumulate maggotts too badly.
they bruise very blue, dry well, make good soup.
they are considered choice edible. the ones you have however are a different species i would not trust
