Boletus suberosus. Hist. 162.

Cork Boletus.

From a particular spicy smell
in this plant I think it most likely
to be the suaveolens of Linnaeus.
I have called it suberosus because it
agrees so well with Linnaeus description
of that species, and yet there
is nothing in it which disagrees
with his description of suaveolens,
a description indeed from which little
is to be learned except the Lapland
mode of Courtship.
