Rubroboletus pulchrotinctus is a rare bolete fungus in the genus Rubroboletus, native to central and southern Europe. It was originally described in genus Boletus by Italian mycologist Carlo Luciano Alessio in 1985,[1] but subsequently transferred to genus Rubroboletus by Zhao and colleagues (2015), on the basis of molecular evidence.[2] Phylogenetically, R. pulchrotinctus is the sister-species of the better known Rubroboletus satanas, with which it shares several morphological features.[3]

Rubroboletus pulchrotinctus forms ectomycorrhizal associations with several members of the Fagaceae, particularly species of oak species (Quercus).[4][3]

It is known from Spain ,[5] France ,[6] Italy[7] and Greece,[8] as well as the Balkan and Crimean Peninsulas.[9][10] In the eastern Mediterranean region, its distribution extends as south as Israel, where it is found in Mount Carmel National Park and Beit Oren growing under the Palestine oak (Quercus calliprinos)[11] and the island of Cyprus, where it is found under the endemic golden oak (Quercus alnifolia).[3]
