Boletus edulis
Boletus mushrooms are tasty fungi found in forests. They have a thick stem and a cap with pores underneath. People enjoy picking them for delicious meals.
Hábitat: Forests
The Boletus has a distinctive broad, convex cap, usually brown or reddish-brown, which can feel slightly sticky when wet. Underneath, instead of gills, it has pale pores that yellow with age and bruise greenish. Its thick, pale stem often features a fine, raised net-like pattern called reticulation.
