Xerocomellus
''Xerocomellus'' is a genus of fungi in the family Boletaceae. The genus, as it was described in 2008, contained 12 species. However '' X. rubellus'' and '' X. engelii'' were transferred to the new genus '' Hortiboletus'' and '' X. armeniacus'' was transferred to the new genus '' Rheubarbariboletus'' in 2015. Molecular analysis supports the distinction of ''Xerocomellus'' species from ''Boletus'' and '' Xerocomus'', within which these species were formerly contained. ''Xerocomellus'' in fact is only distantly related to '' Xerocomus'' and is most closely related to ''Tylopilus'', ''Boletus'' sensu stricto, '' Porphyrellus'', '' Strobilomyces'', and '' Xanthoconium''. Taxonomy Members of the genus had been classified either in the genus ''Boletus'' or ''Xerocomus'' until Czech mycologist Josef Šutara examined a number of species and concluded that there was a defined group containing ''X. chrysenteron'', ''X. armeniacus'' and relatives that are distinct morpholog ...

Xerocomellus Chrysenteron
''Xerocomellus chrysenteron'', formerly known as ''Boletus chrysenteron'' or ''Xerocomus chrysenteron'', is a small, edible, wild mushroom in the family Boletaceae. These mushrooms have tubes and pores instead of gills beneath their caps. It is commonly known as the red cracking bolete. Taxonomy This mushroom was first described and named as ''Boletus communis'' in 1789 by the eminent French botanist Jean Baptiste Francois Pierre Bulliard. Two years later, in 1791, it was given the specific epithet ''chrysenteron'' by the same author, the species name coming from the Ancient Greek words ''khrysos'' "gold" and ''enteron'' "innards". In 1888, Lucien Quelet placed it in the new genus ''Xerocomus'', retaining the ''chrysenteron'' epithet. This binomial was generally accepted until 1985 when Marcel Bon decided to resurrect the former specific epithet ''communis'', which resulted in the binomial ''Xerocomus communis''. While it recently resided back in the genus ''Boletus'', a''B. ...

Xerocomus
''Xerocomus'' is a genus of poroid fungi related to ''Boletus''. Many mycologists did not originally recognize the distinction between the two genera and placed ''Xerocomus'' taxa in genus ''Boletus''. However, several molecular phylogenetic studies have demonstrated that ''Xerocomus'' is a heterogeneous genus of polyphyletic origin, which has resulted in further division of ''Xerocomus'' into '' Xerocomellus'' and '' Hemileccinum''. The members of the genus ''Xerocomellus'' are more closely related to ''Boletus'' than true ''Xerocomus'' is, which is relatively distantly related to ''Boletus'' and more closely related to ''Phylloporus''. Other former ''Xerocomus'' species have since been moved to ''Aureoboletus'', '' Imleria'', '' Hortiboletus'' and '' Rheubarbariboletus''. Ladurner and Simonini published a monograph on ''Xerocomus'' in 2003, but this predated the taxonomical revisions based on phylogenetic inferences. In 2008, Hills included 18 species found in Britain, not inc ...

Rheubarbariboletus Armeniacus
''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. Taxonomy French naturalist Lucien Quélet described this species as ''Boletus armeniacus'' in 1885, before placing it in the genus ''Xerocomus'' in his 1888 work ''Flore mycologique de la France et des pays limitrophes'' (''Mycological flora of France and neighbouring countries''). It was transferred to the new genus ''Xerocomellus'' described by Czech mycologist Josef Šutara in 2008, and then to '' Rheubarbariboletus'' in 2015. Description The cap is initially globular before expanding to become convex and flattening somewhat; it grows to a diameter of . The cap margin initially adheres to the stipe and has a tendency to become lobed or undulated in age. The cap surface is first somewhat pubescent but ...

Xerocomus Subtomentosus
''Xerocomus subtomentosus'', commonly known as suede bolete, brown and yellow bolete , boring brown bolete or yellow-cracked bolete, is a species of bolete fungus in the family Boletaceae. The fungus was initially described by Carl Linnaeus in 1753 and known for many years as ''Boletus subtomentosus''. It is edible, though not as highly regarded as other bolete mushrooms. It occurs throughout Eurasia, North America and Australia and grows with a wide range of hardwood and conifer trees. It forms symbiotic ectomycorrhizal associations with living trees by enveloping the tree's underground roots with sheaths of fungal tissue. The fungus produces spore-bearing fruit bodies. The olive to tan fruit body cap is up to in diameter and has a distinctive velvety surface. Like other boletes, it has tubes extending downward from the underside of the cap, rather than gills; spores escape at maturity through the tube openings, or pores. The pore surface is yellow and bruises blue. The stipe ...

Boletaceae
The Boletaceae are a family of mushroom-forming fungi, primarily characterised by small pores on the spore-bearing hymenial surface (at the underside of the mushroom), instead of gills as are found in most agarics. Nearly as widely distributed as the agarics, the family is renowned for hosting some prime edible species highly sought after by mushroom hunters worldwide, such as the cep or king bolete (''Boletus edulis''). A number of rare or threatened species are also present in the family, that have become the focus of increasing conservation concerns. As a whole, the typical members of the family are commonly known as boletes. Boletes are a group of mushrooms reasonably safe for human consumption, as none of them are known to be deadly to adults. Edible bolete species are especially suitable for novice collectors, since they pose little danger of being confused with deadly poisonous mushrooms, such as deadly ''Amanita'' species which bear gills instead of pores in their hym ...

Hortiboletus Rubellus
''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''. Taxonomy ''Boletus rubellus'' was one of the pored basidiomycetes to be placed in the genus ''Xerocomus'' in the past, and is still regarded as such in some texts. The previously commonly used binomial name ''Boletus versicolor'' (Rostk.), published in 1844, is now reduced to synonymy as it postdates the current name by German mycologist Julius Vincenz von Krombholz which dates from 1836. Its present specific epithet ' is Latin for "somewhat red". The fungus was transferred to the new genus ''Hortiboletus'' in 2015, following molecular evidence ...

Hortiboletus Engelii
''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 campestris'' and ''Boletus engelii'' to ''Hortiboletus''. Species *'' Hortiboletus amygdalinus'' Xue T. Zhu & Zhu L.

Rheubarbariboletus
''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 flesh of the stipe. ''Rheubarbariboletus persicolor'' was originally described in 1996 as ''Xerocomus persicolor'', based on collections made in Italy. The bolete was found in mixed woodland with hop-hornbeam, pine, and oak An oak is a tree or shrub in the genus ''Quercus'' (; Latin "oak tree") of the beech family, Fagaceae. There are approximately 500 extant spe ...

Imleria Badia
''Imleria badia'', commonly known as the bay bolete, is an edible, pored mushroom found in Eurasia and North America, where it grows in coniferous or mixed woods on the ground or on decaying tree stumps, sometimes in prolific numbers. Both the common and scientific names refer to the bay- or chestnut-coloured cap, which is almost spherical in young specimens before broadening and flattening out to a diameter up to . On the cap underside are small yellowish pores that turn dull blue-grey when bruised. The smooth, cylindrical stipe, measuring long by thick, is coloured like the cap, but paler. Some varieties have been described from eastern North America, differing from the main type in both macroscopic and microscopic morphology. First described scientifically by Elias Fries in 1818, the bay bolete was reclassified as ''Xerocomus badius'' in 1931, and it is still listed thus in several sources. Modern molecular phylogenetic studies show ''Xerocomus'' to be polyphyletic ( ...

Bull
A bull is an intact (i.e., not castrated) adult male of the species ''Bos taurus'' (cattle). More muscular and aggressive than the females of the same species (i.e., cows), bulls have long been an important symbol in many religions, including for sacrifices. These animals play a significant role in beef ranching, dairy farming, and a variety of sporting and cultural activities, including bullfighting and bull riding. Due to their temperament, handling requires precautions. Nomenclature The female counterpart to a bull is a cow, while a male of the species that has been castrated is a ''steer'', '' ox'', or ''bullock'', although in North America, this last term refers to a young bull. Use of these terms varies considerably with area and dialect. Colloquially, people unfamiliar with cattle may refer to both castrated and intact animals as "bulls". A wild, young, unmarked bull is known as a ''micky'' in Australia.Sheena Coupe (ed.), ''Frontier Country, Vol. 1'' (Weldon R ...
