Lanmaoa fragrans

Lanmaoa fragrans is a rare species of bolete fungus in the family Boletaceae found in Europe.

It has a brownish convex cap measuring 5–12 cm (2.0–4.7 in) in diameter that initially has a velvety texture before becoming smooth.

The pores on the cap underside are lemon-yellow to chrome-yellow and display a faint blue bruising reaction.

[6] Although Lanmaoa fragrans has been occasionally reported from North America, this version has a different mycorrhizal associate (conifers) and it is not known if it is the same as the European species.

[7] Originally described in 1835 by Italian mycologist Carlo Vittadini as a species of Boletus, the fungus was transferred to Lanmaoa in 2015 by Alfredo Vizzini.
