Boletus Rex-veris
''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. edulis''. In 2008, a taxonomic revision of western North American populations of this species was published, formally establishing it as a distinct species, ''Boletus rex-veris''. Phylogenetic analysis has shown ''B. rex-veris'' as a member of a clade, or closely related group, with '' B. fibrillosus'', '' B. pinophilus'', '' B. subcaerulescens'', ''Gastroboletus subalpi ...

Boletus Edulis
''Boletus edulis'' (English: cep, penny bun, porcino or porcini) is a basidiomycete fungus, and the type species of the genus ''Boletus''. Widely distributed in the Northern Hemisphere across Europe, Asia, and North America, it does not occur naturally in the Southern Hemisphere, although it has been introduced to southern Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and Brazil. Several closely related European mushrooms formerly thought to be varieties or forms of ''B. edulis'' have been shown using molecular phylogenetic analysis to be distinct species, and others previously classed as separate species are conspecific with this species. The western North American species commonly known as the California king bolete (''Boletus edulis'' var. ''grandedulis'') is a large, darker-coloured variant first formally identified in 2007. The fungus grows in deciduous and coniferous forests and tree plantations, forming symbiotic ectomycorrhizal associations with living trees by enveloping the ...

Arora first developed an interest in wild mushrooms while growing up in Pasadena, California and organized his first mushroom collecting group while in high school. Later, an idea to start a mushroom club came about, and in 1984 he founded The Fungus Federation of Santa Cruz.

Boletus Fibrillosus
''Boletus fibrillosus'' is a basidiomycete fungus of the genus ''Boletus'' found in western North America. The fruiting bodies are found in mixed coastal forests in the fall, usually singly or in small groups. The cap is up to 17 cm wide, buff to brown to dark brown in color, and has a wrinkled to finely fibrous texture. The tubes are yellow, while the flesh is white to buff and does not stain when cut. The stem is yellowish at the top, brown otherwise, with a reticulate texture, and mycelium enshrouding the bottom. The holotype was collected in Mendocino County, California. The species is edible, but considered to have inferior taste to other edible boletes such as '' B. edulis'', which it is often confused with. Phylogenetic analysis has shown ''B. fibrillosus'' as a member of a clade, or closely related group, with '' B. pinophilus'', '' B. regineus'', '' B. rex-veris'', '' B. subcaerulescens'', and ''Gastroboletus subalpinus''.

Abies
Firs (''Abies'') are a genus of 48–56 species of evergreen coniferous trees in the family Pinaceae. They are found on mountains throughout much of North and Central America, Europe, Asia, and North Africa. The genus is most closely related to ''Cedrus'' (cedar). The genus name is derived from the Latin "to rise" in reference to the height of its species. The common English name originates with the Old Norse, fyri, or the Old Danish, fyr. They are large trees, reaching heights of tall with trunk diameters of when mature. Firs can be distinguished from other members of the pine family by the way in which their needle-like leaves are attached singly to the branches with a base resembling a suction cup, and by their cones, which, like those of true cedars, stand upright on the branches like candles and disintegrate at maturity. Identification of the different species is based on the size and arrangement of the leaves, the size and shape of the cones, and whether the bract scal ...

Lodgepole Pine
''Pinus contorta'', with the common names lodgepole pine and shore pine, and also known as twisted pine, and contorta pine, is a common tree in western North America. It is common near the ocean shore and in dry montane forests to the subalpine, but is rare in lowland rain forests. Like all pines (member species of the genus ''Pinus''), it is an evergreen conifer. Description Depending on subspecies, ''Pinus contorta'' grows as an evergreen shrub or tree. The shrub form is krummholz and is approximately high. The thin and narrow-crowned tree can grow high and achieve up to in diameter at chest height. The ''murrayana'' subspecies is the tallest. The crown is rounded and the top of the tree is flattened. In dense forests, the tree has a slim, conical crown. The formation of twin trees is common in some populations in British Columbia. The elastic branches stand upright or overhang and are difficult to break. The branches are covered with short shoots that are easy to remove. ...

Pinus Ponderosa
''Pinus ponderosa'', commonly known as the ponderosa pine, bull pine, blackjack pine, western yellow-pine, or filipinus pine is a very large pine tree species of variable habitat native to mountainous regions of western North America. It is the most widely distributed pine species in North America.Safford, H.D. 2013.

Boletus Regineus
''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''.

Gastroboletus Subalpinus
''Boletus subalpinus'' is a species of fungus in the family Boletaceae. The species was first described scientifically in 1969 by American mycologists Harry Delbert Thiers and James M. Trappe. It is found in California and Oregon. It was originally named as a species of ''Gastroboletus'' but was found to be in ''Boletus sensu stricto'' in a 2013 molecular phylogenetics study.

Boletus Subcaerulescens
''Boletus subcaerulescens'' is a basidiomycete fungus of the genus ''Boletus'' found in northeastern North America. The fruiting bodies are found associated with pine and spruce. The cap is up to 18 cm wide, convex to flat, and brown in color. The tubes are yellow and stain blue (later becoming brown) when bruised, while the flesh is white to buff and does not stain when cut. The stem is brown like the cap and has a light-colored reticulate texture. The specific epithet is from Latin: '' sub-'' + '' caeruleus'' + '' -escens'', literally "becoming dark blue beneath". Phylogenetic analysis has shown ''B. subcaerulescens'' as a member of a clade, or closely related group, with '' B. pinophilus'', '' B. regineus'', '' B. rex-veris'', '' B. fibrillosus'', and ''Gastroboletus subalpinus''.
