Description
Pine bolete is so named because of its strong mutually-beneficial association with several species of pine tree. So, if you find stone pine, Corsican pine, and similar trees in coniferous woodlands, you are likely to see pine bolete growing beneath them. This chunky-looking mushroom has a distinctively bulbous stem.
