Where to look: red cracking bolete
A field over the measurement network. The colour here is for the leading species at each point, not for this one; a per-species layer is computed for one region so far.
About the species. Edible when correctly identified and cooked. The pores and flesh can bruise blue-green. Older fruitbodies become soft quickly and are best left.
