White King Bolete mushroom or Boletus barrowsii Found exactly as described under a forest of Ponderosa pine and is said to be edible. I don&#039;t take any chances because of my lack of shoom knowledge and I don&#039;t want to die from eating toxic mushrooms.<br />

"Boletus barrowsii", also known in English as the white king bolete after its pale colored cap, is an edible and highly regarded fungus in the genus "Boletus" that inhabits western North America. Found under ponderosa pine and live oak in autumn, it was considered a color variant of the similarly edible "B. edulis" for many years.
