Chroogomphus rutilus (Schaeff.: Fr.) Miller, syn.: Gomphidius viscidus (L.) Fr. Copper Spike, DE: Kuferroter GelbfuSlo.: bakreni polarDat.: Sept. 19. 2009Lat.: 46.37473 Long.: 13.74063Code: Bot_380/2009_DSC4140Habitat: sandy grassland; mixed broadleaved and conifer wood edge; Picea abies, Pinus sylvestris, Salix eleagnos in the vicinity; semiruderal, calcareous ground; flat terrain; dry, half sunny place; exposed to direct rain; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, elevation 580 m (1.900 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.Substratum: soil.Place: Lower Trenta valley, left bank of river Soa, southwest of village Trenta, downstream of Matoja Inn, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC.Comments: Croomogomphus rutilus is a quite common fungus in this region. Two other species Chroomogomhus helveticus and C. glutinosus grow in the same region. It is not always simple to tell them apart. C. glutinosus is normally very slimy and grows always under Picea abies while Croomogomphus rutilus grows only under two-needle pines. C. helveticus is rarely slimy but grows under Picea abies, two- and fife-needle Pinus species. Inamyloid hypha of the pileipellis is another more demanding distinguishing character. Spore dimensions are very similar of all three and hence of little help in discrimination. Different mycorrhizal partners also did not help in identification of this find since Picea abies and Pinus sylvestris (a two-needle species) were in the vicinity. Yet, characteristic copper tone of the pilei seems to be quite a reliable feature for Croomogomphus rutilus. Growing in small groups of a few fruit bodies and solitary; SP abundant, grayish-brown. Spores smooth. Dimensions 17,3 [18,5 ; 19,1] 20,3 x 5,8 [6,4 ; 6,6] 7,1 microns; Q = 2,6 [2,8 ; 3] 3,2; N = 24; C = 95%; Me = 18,8 x 6,5 microns; Qe = 2,9.

Place: Lower Trenta valley, between villages Soa and Trenta, right bank of river Soa; next to the trail from Soa 46 abandoned farm house to Planina Na skalah, just before the trail passes a sandy ravine, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC.Comments: Hemileccinum impolitum is a beautiful, all yellowish bolete, generally considered a rare find in Europe. However, this doesn't seem to hold for Slovenia, since many records exist in Boletus Informaticus Data Base (Ref.7). The species is very similar to closely related Hemileccinum depilatum (Redeuilh) utara. The most important distinguishing traits are pilei surface and microscopic structure of pilei cutis. The latter species usually looks like having 'hammered' pileus. However, the only sure way to differentiate them is microscopic structure of their pilei cuticle. Hemileccinum depilatum has hymeniform-cellular cuticle with many club shaped to sub globose end cells. I found nothing like this in this find. Growing solitary. Hut diameter 12 cm, stipe 12.5 cm long and almost 4 cm wide (max); hut somewhat sticky; strong smell on chemicals in the stipe base (which almost disappears after several hours), otherwise smell of trama and pore layer quite mild; taste mild, pleasant; no part of the pileus is bruising when cut or damaged; SP abundant, olive-beige, oac847. Spores smooth. Dimensions: (11.5) 12.1 - 13.9 (14.5) (5.1) 5.3 - 5.8 (6.1) m, Q = (2) 2.2 - 2.5 (2.7); N = 33; Me = 13 5.5 m; Qe = 2.3; Olympus CH20, NEA 100x/1.25, magnification 1.000 x, oil in water, fresh material.

It can be found under hornbeam trees (genus Carpinus) or more rarely under hazel (Corylus avellana) in contrast to very similar Leccinum scabrum, which grows under birches (genus Betula). For both species, there are very few exceptions known from these tight mycorrhizal relations. This find is interesting in respect to mycorrhiza. There are no Carpinus or Betula trees known as far as a few km away from this find. The closest single Corylus avellana in the vicinity grows 17 m away within the forest edge. It has poorly developed canopy, is about 4 m tall with three - four trunks of 5-7 cm in diameter. It seems impossible that its root system would reach the site of the find. The forest edge near the site is composed of several large Ostrya carpinifolia (15 m away), several large Fagus sylvatica trees (22+ m away), a single Fraxinus excelsior (18 m away, trunk diameter 15 cm) and several small Picea abies. All these trees appear much too far for mycorrhiza with this find. Closer to the find are: a large Picea abies (6.5 m away, trunk diameter 60 cm), a small Frangula alnus = Rhamnus frangula (about 5 m away and 3 m tall, trunk diameter about 10 cm), a small Fraxinus ornus (also about 5 m away, 7 m tall, trunk diameter 15 cm) and a small Fagus sylvatica (about 8 m away, trunk diameter 17 cm, canopy diameter about 3 m). Picea abies is out of consideration regarding mycorrhiza. Neither Frangula alnus nor Fraxinus ornus appear in the literature (accessible to me) as possible mycorrhizal partner of Leccinellum pseudoscabrum or Leccinum scabrum. The root system of the small Fagus sylvatica apparently does not reach the spot. So, what is the mycorrhizal partner in this case remains open.Another strange thing is that the ground on which the fungus was found is dry, highly water permeable, colluvial and skeletal. That is in strong opposition to fresh, moister, usually clayey ground typical for Leccinellum pseudoscabrum. Also, violet tint of blackening after bruising or cutting the mushroom, described in several sources, was not present. Bruising was directly to blackish with no other color tints. May be this determination is wrong? If so, I have no clue, what else can this find be. All other observed traits correspond to Leccinellum pseudoscabrum very well. Growing solitary. Pileus diameter 6.5 cm, tubes up to 1.8 cm long; stem length 10.2 cm, diameter at the base 1.7 cm; taste mild, mushroomy, smell almost none; SP faint, almost invisible, possibly whitish-brown?
