Two-colored Boletes
Beautifully contrasting red and yellow colors really make these mushrooms stand out. The caps and stems were bright red, and the pore surface was bright yellow. The pores bruised immediately when marked, but the flesh did not bruise when sliced. Mushrooms were 4-6cm tall.
The two-colored bolete, named after its two-tone coloring scheme of red and yellow, is an edible fungus in the genus "Baorangia". It inhabits most of eastern North America, primarily east of the Rocky Mountains and in season during the summer and fall months but can be found across the globe in China and Nepal.
