  This 
  species 
  resembles 
  B. 
  Americanus 
  in 
  color, 
  but 
  differs 
  from 
  it 
  

   in 
  its 
  thicker 
  pileus, 
  stouter 
  stem 
  and 
  differently 
  colored 
  spores. 
  

   These 
  have 
  nearly 
  the 
  same 
  color 
  as 
  those 
  of 
  B. 
  Ravenelii. 
  In 
  its 
  

   more 
  robust 
  habit 
  it 
  approaches 
  B. 
  granulatus. 
  The 
  minute 
  hairy 
  

   squamules 
  of 
  the 
  pileus 
  are 
  a 
  peculiar 
  feature, 
  but 
  they 
  are 
  not 
  

   always 
  present. 
  The 
  glandular 
  dots 
  occur 
  also 
  on 
  the 
  tubes.

  The 
  rhubarb-colored 
  stem 
  and 
  the 
  brownish 
  color 
  of 
  the 
  young 
  

   hymenium 
  are 
  the 
  distinguishing 
  features 
  of 
  this 
  species. 
  The 
  granu-

  also 
  on

  The 
  species 
  is

   been 
  found 
  but 
  once.

  This 
  species 
  is 
  easily 
  known 
  by 
  its 
  white 
  pileus. 
  This, 
  however, 
  

   becomes 
  dark-colored 
  or 
  brown 
  in 
  drying. 
  The 
  fresh 
  plant 
  sometimes 
  

   has 
  a 
  peculiar 
  fetid 
  odor, 
  but 
  it 
  docs 
  not 
  appear 
  to 
  be 
  constant.

  European 
  species. 
  Another 
  

   European 
  species 
  bears 
  the 
  name 
  Boletus

  Gillet, 
  but 
  the 
  name 
  

   of 
  the 
  American 
  plant, 
  which 
  was 
  published 
  in 
  1873, 
  has 
  priority.
