Taxonomy and naming
editOriginally described by Rolf Singer in 1983 as Pulveroboletus duckeanus, it was given its current name by Ernst Both and Beatriz Ortiz-Santana in A preliminary survey of the genus Buchwaldoboletus, published in "Bulletin of the Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences" in 2011. [1]
Description
editThe cap is convex and viscid. Its color is brown. Easily peeled off the mushroom, the skin is separated from the flesh by a thin gelatinous layer. The pores are small and angular, and the pore surface stains blue with injury. The stipe is subferruginous and tapering, and there is a yellow bluing mycelium at the stipe base.[2]
Spores are small and measure (4)5–6 by (3.3)3.5–4.2(4.5) μm.[2]
Distribution and ecology
editBuchwaldoboletus duckeanus has been recorded in Brazil, in Adolfo Ducke Forest Reserve. Like other Buchwaldoboletus species, it is not obligatorily ectomycorrhizal.[2]
