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.
Bovine Bolete in Lombardia: where to look

Bovine Bolete: the species in brief
How to tell it
A small to medium bolete with a yellow-brown to reddish-brown cap. The pores are unusually large, angular and often irregular. The stem has no ring.
Where it grows
Closely associated with pine, especially on damp, mossy or peaty ground.
In the kitchen
Best used young. It can be fried, added to soups or preserved. Texture and flavour are milder than in many better-known boletes.
Nutrition
Low in calories and contains a modest amount of protein.
