Abstract

Methods and techniques for culturing and studying species of Boletaceae in culture are described. Some preliminary views as to the possibilities and limitations of the taxonomic criteria, to be used for identifying species in culture, are discussed. Descriptions and illustrations of Gyrodon merulioides (Schw.) Sing., Boletinus cavipes (Opat.) Kalchbr., Boletinus pictus (Peck) Peck, Boletinus spectabilis (Peck) Murrill, and Boletinus grisellus Peck, which have not been previously described in culture, are presented.
