description Bluing Bolete Overview
Gyroporus cyanescens, commonly called the bluing bolete, is a poroid fungus recorded from Europe and North America. Its cap is often pale tan to yellowish, while the stem may be brittle and hollow in mature specimens. The flesh can turn a vivid blue when bruised or cut, a reaction that gives the species its common name. It has been regarded as edible by some mushroom guides, but color change alone is not enough for safe identification.
