Photos of Xerocomus chrysonemus and X. silwoodensis added
Today, photos of two little known xerocomoid boletes were added to the site, namely Xerocomus chrysonemus and X. silwoodensis, both of them very recently described. The images were generously provided by the British boletologist Alan Hills, author of the species.
Although both species are of great interest as they prove how little we know even about the bolete mycota of Europe, Xerocomus silwoodensis became particularly famous, because it was found in the park of the Imperial College in London. and was elected in the Top 10 species in 2008.
