boletaceae
Boletes are fun mushrooms that can be found in forests! They have thick stems and are often colorful, making them easy to spot on the forest floor.
Lebensraum: Boletes live in forests, often near trees.
The Boletes has a thick, often club-shaped stem and a distinct cap, usually smooth or velvety. Instead of gills, their undersides have a spongy layer of tiny pores that release spores. Caps vary widely in color, from reddish-brown to yellow or even blue.
