Boletus

The boletus compose the main part of the Boletales, order of Champignon S Basidiomycète S in which the Hyménophore (airfoil the fertile cells, or Hyménium) is separable flesh of the hat. At boletus, hyménophore is constituted of tubes welded ones with others and finished by Pore S. With maturity, these tubes form kind of hay similar to that of Artichoke S. In other words (even if some mushrooms with pores are not boletus), it is enough to look under the hat to recognize the boletus and to distinguish them from mushrooms with plates. No boletus is mortal, but some involve gastric disorders or gastro-enteric more or less serious according to the individuals: it is the case in particular of Boletus satanas , or Bolet Satan. It is as among the boletus as are the most required mushrooms, the Cèpe S.
