Hemileccinum

Hemileccinum is a genus of fungi in the family Boletaceae. It was erected in 2008 by Josef Šutara to contain two species united by a number of shared morphological features: H. depilatum and the type H. impolitum.[1] In 2014, Wu et al. found it to be distinct from other bolete genera in a molecular phylogenetic study and found it to be most closely related to Corneroboletus.[2] In 2015, H. subglabripes was transferred to Hemileccinum from Boletus based on DNA evidence,[3] while subsequent studies further confirmed the monophyly of the genus.[4]

Lateral stipe stratumFrequently gelatinous, 60-90 μM thick, thicker than that of XerocomellusSimilar to that of Leccinum species, ornamented with stipe scabrousities up to 400-640 μM thickFrequently not present, reduced to no more than 30-40 μM thick, not gelatinousLateral stipe stratum never gelatinous and 80-200 μM thick
