Field Notes

Description:

Small bolete mushroom, perhaps Boletus radicans, about 3 centimeters tall. The cap was red, orange at the margin, furry and approximately 4 centimeters in diameter. Short, bulbous, cream colored stem about 1,5 cm tall. I'm not sure if this mushroom is infected by the bolete eater, because several mushrooms nearby were.

Habitat:

Grew on soil and grass nearby a willow tree (Salix babylonica).

Notes:

Spotted in rural area of Deventer, Holland.
