Where to look: bay 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 may turn blue when bruised or cut; this is normal. Bay Bolete can accumulate radiocaesium more readily than some other boletes. In areas where local authorities issue advice about radioactive contamination, follow that advice and consider choosing other species. Avoid polluted ground such as roadsides and former industrial sites.
