Boletus subvelutipes
The stipe was reddish with some brown streaks. The cap was orange and had some tan around the margin. The stem, flesh, and pores immediately bruised a dramatic blue when I knocked it over.
Small bolete growing on the ground in a deciduous forest.
The fruiting bodies are poisonous, and produce symptoms of gastrointestinal distress if eaten.
