Description

Fruit bodies have convex brown caps measuring up to 10 cm (3.9 in) in diameter. The surface is initially smooth, but becomes cracked as the bolete ages. Tubes on the cap underside are 2–2.5 cm (0.8–1.0 in) long, while the large angular pores are 4–5 mm across. Spores are spherical or nearly so, and measure 9–11 µm.[1]

gollark: When all my AP eggs hatch, I should do some sort of large ND experiment.
gollark: It's not hard, just do anything to make users' lives easier.
gollark: I mean, he hasn't complained about *it*, but has complained about basically every other thing I do!
gollark: It's some experimental thing I made ages ago which autorefreshes things faster than the PHP-based browser versions.
gollark: I can use my fast-AR, as long as TJ09 doesn't complain again.
