WELCOME FUNGI LOVERS
πππ
For this weeks Fungi Friday by @ewkaw i got the second part of a larger photo series of fungi of the Xerocomellus or formerly called Boletus or Boletes family for you to enjoy. No Red Cracking Boletes this time around as far as i can tell and strangely some of those mushrooms are looking somewhat similar to pancakes, later on you'll see what i mean.
These fungi are common in a variety of habitats, including forests, grasslands, and even urban areas. I found those in the morning hours of different days at different places, but in the same park area. If you recognise these fungi and know their name for sure, feel free and correct me by writing it in the comments.
A little research about the Xerocomellis fungi.
They are ectopic fungi that have a symbiotic relationship with plants. They form complex connections with the root systems of these plants, exchanging nutrients for sugar in a mutually beneficial manner. This ecological role makes Xerocomella species ecologically important in forest ecosystems, facilitating nutrient cycling and contributing to the health of the surrounding vegetation.
Notable features of Xerocomellis fungi is their distinctive cap and stem. Hats vary from bulbous to flat and range in color from shades of brown, yellow, and red. Their surface texture may be smooth or slightly scaly. The stem, which is usually thick and cylindrical, may have a net like pattern on the surface.
One of the distinguishing features of the Xerocomella fungus is the tubular membrane found on the underside of the cap, consisting of small holes instead of the traditional gills. Inside these pores are the structures of the fungi that contain it's spores.
While some species of Xerocomellos are considered edible and are harvested for culinary use in some regions, others can be confusing due to their resemblance to poisonous or inedible species.
Therefore, as i mentioned in the first part already, proper identification is essential before consuming any wild mushrooms!

Talking about consuming mushrooms, behold the following photo series of Xerocomellus fungi and their striking resemblance of fresh'n tasty pancakes.
Do you smell pancakes already?
Mmmmhhh π€€
Maple syrup or honey?
Or do you prefer your pancakes the savoury way?
With ham and cheese baked in maybe?
Or do you prefer sitting on the forest floor enjoying the moisty, musky, earthly scent mixed with that typical note of mushroom odor in the air?
I don't know about you, but i had to bake myself some pancakes that day i shot these musshrooms! π€€
