Neoboletus luridiformis, also previously known as Boletus luridiformis and (invalidly) as Boletus erythropus, is a fungus of the bolete family, most of which produce mushrooms with tubes and pores beneath their caps. It is commonly known as the scarletina bolete, for its red pores, which are yellow when young. Other common names include the red foot bolete, dotted stemmed bolete, or dotted stem bolete. It is found in Northern Europe and North America. While edible when cooked properly, it can cause vomiting and diarrhea if not.

Hortiboletus rubellus, commonly known as the ruby bolete, is a small, dainty, brightly coloured member of the family Boletaceae, with a reddish cap and stipe, and yellow pores. Like many boletes, it stains blue when cut or bruised. It is found in deciduous woodland in autumn. There is some question over its edibility, and it is reportedly of poor quality with a taste of soap. Until 2015, the species was known as Boletus rubellus.

Suillellus queletii (formerly Boletus queletii), commonly known as the deceiving bolete, is an uncommon, edible mushroom in the genus Suillellus.

Cyanoboletus pulverulentus, commonly known as the ink stain bolete, is a species of edible bolete mushroom. All parts of the mushroom will stain dark bluish-black after handling. It is found in deciduous and mixed forests, particularly on moist soil on slopes and under beech and oak trees. A common species, it is found in northern Asia, Europe, North Africa, Central and northern South America, and eastern North America. A recent study has revealed this mushroom hyperaccumulates arsenic compounds and therefore consumption should be limited.

Rubroboletus lupinus, commonly known as the wolf bolete, is a bolete fungus of the genus Rubroboletus. Originally described by Elias Magnus Fries in 1838 as species of Boletus, it was transferred to Rubroboletus in 2015, a genus circumscribed to host other allied reddish-colored, blue-staining bolete species forming a distinct clade. The species epithet is derived from the Latin word lupus, meaning "wolf". Molecular studies have revealed considerable genetic variation among European populations of R. lupinus, placing it in a clade sister to Rubroboletus dupainii. The species is found in warm

Lanmaoa fragrans is a rare species of bolete fungus in the family Boletaceae found in Europe. It has a brownish convex cap measuring 5–12 cm (2.0–4.7 in) in diameter that initially has a velvety texture before becoming smooth. The spindle-shaped stipe measures 7–9 cm (2.8–3.5 in) long by 3–5 cm (1.2–2.0 in) wide. It is yellow at the top and flushed with red in the lower portions, terminating with black at the very base. The yellow flesh is tinged with red under the cap cuticle. It bruises blue only after several hours of exposure to air. The pores on the cap underside are lemon-yellow to

Neoboletus is a genus of fungi in the family Boletaceae, native to holarctic regions. It was circumscribed in 2014 by Italian mycologists Matteo Gelardi, Giampaolo Simonini and Alfredo Vizzini, and further by Chinese mycologists Gang Wu and Zhu L. Yang in 2015. Closely related to the genus Sutorius, members of this genus differ by staining blue when bruised. They have brown pores and lack a reticulated pattern on their stipes. The erection of Neoboletus follows recent molecular studies that outlined a new phylogenetic framework for the Boletaceae. The type species is Neoboletus luridiformis.

Rheubarbariboletus armeniacus is a small mushroom in the family Boletaceae native to Europe. It was formerly placed in the genera Boletus, Xerocomus, and Xerocomellus. It acquired its current name when it was transferred to genus Rheubarbariboletus in 2015.

Hortiboletus is a genus of fungi in the family Boletaceae. It was circumscribed in 2015 by Giampaolo Simonini, Alfredo Vizzini, and Matteo Gelardi. The erection of Hortiboletus follows recent molecular studies that outlined a new phylogenetic framework for the Boletaceae. Hortiboletus is derived from the Latin word hortus "garden", referring to a typical habitat of the type species, Hortiboletus rubellus. The bolete H. bubalinus, originally described as a Boletus and later placed in Xerocomus, was transferred to the genus by Bálint Dima. In 2015, Alona Yu. Biketova transferred Boletus

Cyanoboletus is a fungal genus in the family Boletaceae. Circumscribed in 2014, it contains four species: C. flavosanguineus, C. rainisii, C. sinopulverulentus, and the type, C. pulverulentus. The generic name is derived from the Ancient Greek cyano ("blue"), referring to the rapid blue bruising reaction of the fruit bodies when cut.

Rheubarbariboletus is a fungal genus in the family Boletaceae. Circumscribed in 2014, it contains two species found in Europe: Rheubarbariboletus persicolor, and the type, R. armeniacus. The generic name is derived from the Latin rheubarbarum, meaning "rhubarb", referring to the color of the flesh at the base of the stipe. The genus is closely related to Xerocomellus, but differs by having smooth spores, the unchanging yellowish to orange-rhubarb coloring of the stipe base, and the distinctive dark-green to black color reaction with iron sulphate on both the surface of the cap and on the

Suillellus mendax is a species of bolete fungus found in Europe that forms beneficial relationships with beech, oak, and sweet chestnut trees. First described scientifically in 2013, the fungus produces mushrooms with olive-buff to crimson-red caps, bright yellow pores that turn scarlet-red, and stipes adorned with a crimson network pattern on an orange-red background. Its species epithet mendax, meaning "false" or "deceptive" in Latin, alludes to its close resemblance to the widespread Suillellus luridus, from which it differs by its preference for acidic soils, velvety cap texture, and more

Exsudoporus is a genus of fungi in the family Boletaceae. It was circumscribed in 2014 by Alfredo Vizzini and colleagues, following a number of molecular studies that outlined a new phylogenetic framework for Boletaceae and revealed the genus Boletus in its traditional circumscription to be polyphyletic. However, due to lack of sufficient sequences, Wu and colleagues (2016) were reluctant to accept the newly proposed genus and considered it a synonym of Butyriboletus. Following additional phylogenetic sequencing and morphological analyses, Exsudoporus was clearly resolved as a monophyletic,

Suillellus comptus is a species of bolete fungus found in Europe. Originally described as a species of Boletus in 1993, it was transferred to Suillellus in 2014.

Suillellus amygdalinus (formerly Boletus amygdalinus) is a fungus of the bolete family found in western North America. The fruit bodies, or mushrooms, are characterized by their thick, red to brown caps, red pores, and the strong bluing reaction observed when the mushroom tissue is injured or cut. The cap can reach diameters of up to 12 cm (4.7 in) and the stipe 9 cm (3.5 in) long by 3 cm (1.2 in) thick at maturity. Other similar red-pored, bluing boletes from North America, including Rubroboletus eastwoodiae, Boletus luridiformis, and B. subvelutipes, can be distinguished from S. amygdalinus

Pulchroboletus is a fungal genus in the family Boletaceae. It was circumscribed in 2014 to contain the species formerly known as Xerocomus roseoalbidus, a rare bolete fungus originally described from Sardinia, Italy. Pulchroboletus roseoalbidus is found in Mediterranean Europe, where it grows in association with oak species and less often Cistus species. In 2017, the species Boletus rubricitrinus was moved to Pulchroboletus. Pulchroboletus rubricitrinus can be found under Quercus in lawns in Florida and Texas.

Boletus rex-veris, commonly known as the spring king bolete, is a basidiomycete fungus of the genus Boletus found in western North America. The large, edible fruiting bodies known as mushrooms appear under pine trees, generally in May to June. It has a pinkish to brownish cap and its stem is often large and swollen, and the overall colour may have an orange-red tinge. As with other boletes, the size of the fruiting body is variable. Boletus rex-veris is edible, and may be preserved and cooked. For many years, Boletus rex-veris was considered a subspecies or form of the porcini mushroom B.

Alessioporus is a fungal genus in the family Boletaceae. It was circumscribed in 2014 to contain the species formerly known as Xerocomus ichnusanus. Alessioporus ichnusanus is found in southern Europe, where it grows in association with oak species and less often Cistus species. It grows even less frequently with Castanea sativa and possibly with Eucalyptus camaldulensis and Pteridium aquilinum. This genus contains two recognized species: Alessioporus ichnusanus Alessioporus rubriflavus

Rubroboletus eastwoodiae, sometimes (but inaccurately) called satan's bolete, is a possibly toxic basidiomycete fungus of the bolete family. The cap is 6–25 centimetres (2+1⁄2–10 in) wide, convex, olive-colored, pinkish in age, dry, has margin that curves inward then expands, and yellowish flesh. The stalk is 7–15 cm (3–6 in) tall and 3–6 cm (1+1⁄4–2+1⁄4 in) wide. The flesh turns blue when cut. The spores are olive-brown, elliptical, and smooth. The spore print is olive brown. It is closely related to Rubroboletus pulcherrimus. It looks similar to but is genetically distinct from the European

Boletus regineus, commonly known as the queen bolete, is an edible and highly regarded fungus of the genus Boletus that inhabits southwestern North America. It was considered a variant of the similarly edible B. edulis for many years until declared a unique species in 2008. Phylogenetic analysis has shown B. regineus as a member of a clade, or closely related group, with B. subcaerulescens, Gastroboletus subalpinus, B. pinophilus, B. fibrillosus, and B. rex-veris. The cap is 5–18 cm (2–7 in) wide, convex then flat, brown with a whitish dusting when young. The stalk is 5–15 cm long, 3–6 cm
