BOLETUS

This article appears in Volume V04, Page 159 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BLA-BOS
BOLETUS , a well-marked genus of fungi (order Polyporeae), characterized by the central
stem
 , the cap or pileus, the soft, fleshy
tissue
 , and the
vertical
 , closely-packed tubes or pores which cover the under surface of the pileus and are easily detachable. The species all grow on the ground, in
woods
  or under trees, in the early autumn. They are brown, red or yellow in colour; the pores also vary in colour from pure
white
  to brown, red, yellow or green, and are from one or two lines to nearly an inch
long
 . A few are poisonous; several are good for eating. One of the greatest favourites for the table is Boletus edulis, recognized by its brown cap and
white
  pores which become green when old. It is the ceps of the continental
European
  markets. There are
forty
 -nine British species of Boletus.
