Bolete mushroom Gyroporus roseialbus or may be G. subalbellus on Caney Creek section of Lone Star Hiking Trail in Sam Houston National Forest near Huntsville, Texas, July 13, 2018Lone Star Hiking Trail, Montgomery, TX 77356, USAObservations of the fungus Gyroporus roseialbus in East and Central Texas were made in a pine forest on the Caney Creek section of the Lone Star Hiking Trail in Sam Houston National Forest near Huntsville. The bolete mushroom was found on July 7 and 13, 2018. It was observed growing alone and together with Stereum striatum. Dissection of the mushroom revealed its internal structure. The observations included photographs of the mushroom's underside, side view, and dissected specimens. The exact species was not confirmed, with possibilities including G. roseialbus or G. subalbellus. The mushrooms were found in a specific habitat, suggesting a possible association with pine trees. Further study is needed to confirm the species and understand its ecology in East and Central Texas. The observations provide valuable information on the morphology and growth habits of this fungus.
