Parasitic Bolette

Pseudoboletus parasiticus - Parasitic Bolette
This is an easily identified bolette as it exclusively grows on common earthball - Scleroderma citrinum - fruiting bodies. Its stem erupts from the underside of the earth ball, which often deflates as the bolette mushrooms outwards  and upwards.
