Boletus ornatipes Peck (1878)

Retiboletus ornatipes, commonly known as the ornate-stalked bolete or goldstalk, is a species of bolete fungus in the family Boletaceae. Originally named Boletus ornatipes by American mycologist Charles Horton Peck in 1878,[2] it was transferred to Retiboletus in 2002.[3]

The convex cap is 4–20 centimetres (1 12–8 in) wide and yellow, gray, or brown,[4] staining orangish.[5] The stem is 6–12 cm (2 144 34 in) tall and 1–2.5 cm (12–1 in) thick. The flesh is yellow with a mild to bitter taste. The spore print is tannish brown.[5]

It can be found under oak and beech in eastern North America from July to September.[5]

One guide lists the species as inedible,[6] while another says it is choice.[7] They reportedly tend to be edible if not bitter.[8]
