Extract from Wikipedia article: Tylopilus peralbidus is a bolete fungus in the family Boletaceae native to the eastern United States.
Tylopilus peralbidus is a species of bolete fungus that grows in association with oak trees. In East and Central Texas, it typically fruits from June to October, producing medium-sized, stout mushrooms with pale to white caps and pale yellow to brown pores. The stems are usually white or pale yellow, often with a pinkish tint at the base. This species is found in a variety of woodland habitats, including oak-dominated forests and woodlands along streams and rivers.
Observations of Tylopilus peralbidus in East and Central Texas reveal that the fungus grows in various locations, including Huntsville State Park and Sam Houston National Forest. On September 24, 2020, multiple bolete mushrooms were found on Chinquapin Trail in Huntsville State Park, with images showcasing their appearance from different angles, including a side view and pore surface. A cross section of the mushroom was also observed. In 2021, the fungus was spotted on the Caney Creek section of Lone Star Hiking Trail in Sam Houston National Forest, with one sighting on June 5 and another on July 4, where it grew on sandy soil. The sightings suggest that Tylopilus peralbidus can be found in these regions during the summer and early fall months, often in association with specific trails and soil types.
