Rubroboletus eastwoodiae, or satan's bolete,[2] is a toxic basidiomycete fungus of the bolete family. It occurs on the West Coast of the United States. It is closely related to Rubroboletus pulcherrimus.
The mushroom turns blue with bruising.[3] The cap is 10–25 cm wide, convex, olive-colored, pinkish in age, dry, has margin that curves inward then expands, and yellowish flesh.[3] The stalk is 7–15 cm tall and 3–6 cm wide.[3] The spores are olive-brown, elliptical, and smooth.[3] It may be poisonous.[3]
It looks similar but is not conspecific with the European species Rubroboletus satanas.[2] It is also similar to Boletus pulcherrimus and B. amygdalinus.[3]
