  • notes   Slo.: jamičasti goban - syn: Boletus depilatus Redeuilh, Leccinum depilatum (Redeuilh) Šutara, Xerocomus depilatus (Redeuilh) Manfr. Binder & Besl - Habitat: light, young mixed wood and bushes, Ostrya carpinifolia dominant, some small, young Picea abies, a few very small (< 1 m tall) Fraxinus ornus, no Quercus and Carpinus in the vicinity; sparsely grass overgrown terrain in a mountain ravine; moderately inclined mountain slope, southeast aspect; base rich, colluvial, skeletal, calcareous ground, very shallow, soil layer on scree, sand and stones; half shade, relatively warm place; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 5-7 deg C, elevation 745 m (2.440 feet), alpine phytogeographical region. Substratum: soil among stones. Comments: This find was initially determined as Aureoboletus moravicus (Vacek) Klofac, syn: Boletus moravicus Vacek.. Because of some doubts in this determination the location has been revisited and new pilei collected (see Obs. no. 257921). Pilei cuticle shows a hymenophore appearance with erect hyphae composed of ± inflated cells as the most important distinguishing trait for Hemileccinum depilatum (Ref.:2). Also, almost certain mycorrhizal relation with Ostrya carpinifolia (Ref.: 3) (no other grown up trees in the vicinity), calcareous ground and other traits fit well to the descriptions of this fungus. Description: Two pilei growing together, almost confluent at the base; diameter 15 cm and 5.2 cm, tubes length 15 mm and 10 mm, context thick 23 mm and 12 mm respectively; stipe length 10 cm with 2.3 cm max diameter and 10.5 cm and 2.3 cm diameter respectively, tapering into a rooting base; smell almost absent or very mild, not unpleasant; taste mild, pleasant, a little bit mucous; tubes somewhat bruising darker when pressed on the older pileus; flesh when cut not bruising (also not on the young pileus, which contradicts to Ref.: 8); pilei surface and pore layer barely noticeably sticking when touched (in dry weather). SP light ocher-brown with slight green tint, oac839. Spores smooth, thick walled. Dimensions: 10.3 [11.9 ; 12.5] 14.1 x 4.6 [5.1 ; 5.3] 5.8 microns; Q = 2.1 [2.3 ; 2.4] 2.7; N = 36; C = 95%; Me = 12.2 x 5.2 microns; Qe = 2.4.
