Species | Boletus queletii |

| Location | Near Wymondham, Norfolk | ||
| Habitat | Roadside grass verge. | ||
| Notes | Probably about two weeks old. You can clearly see the stipe has a pointed base and has a dark purple colour. The ground was very dry and I managed to extract the stipe in one piece. Often the stipe is firmly rooted in the ground and more often than not it breaks if you try to pull it out. | ||

| Notes | The colour of the stipe flesh is very similar to that of cooked beetroot and is a very good indicator for this species. | ||
