Aureoboletus flaviporus, commonly known as the viscid bolete, is a species of bolete fungus. From 1905 until 2010, its binomial name was Boletus flaviporus.[2]

Description

The reddish-brown cap is convex, sticky-slimy,[3] and up to 9 cm (3+1⁄2 in) wide.[4] The pores are neon yellow.[3] The stem is up to 9 cm (3+1⁄2 in) tall.[4] The flesh does not stain blue when damaged.[3] It has an acidic and lemony flavour.[5]

Similar species

Aureoboletus auriporus is the most similar species in the genus.[4]

Distribution and habitat

The species is found in western North America, where it grows in ectomycorrhizal association with coast live oak, madrone, manzanita,[3] and possibly with tanoak.[5] In California, this mushroom appears during the rainy season (November to February) as far north as Mendocino County.[4][5] The species is common but does not appear in large groupings, only as one-offs or small clusters in scattered locations.[3]

Uses

The quality of the edible mushroom has been described as mediocre[3] because of poor flavor and texture.[5]
