Where to look: orange oak 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 thoroughly cooked. The flesh can turn grey, blue-grey or almost black after cutting. This is a normal chemical reaction, not a sign of spoilage.
