Tylopilus rubrobrunneus, commonly known as the reddish brown bitter bolete,[1] is a bolete fungus in the family Boletaceae. It was first described scientifically in 1967 by Samuel J. Mazzer and Alexander H. Smith from collections made in Michigan.[2] The bolete was reported from a Mexican beech (Fagus mexicana) forest in Hidalgo, Mexico in 2010.[3]
The cap is 5–13 centimetres (2–5 in) wide. The stem is 7–13 cm tall and 1.5–3 cm thick.[4] The flesh is white and can bruise yellowish, with a very bitter taste.[4] The spore print is pinkish brown.[4]
It can be found under beech and oak trees in eastern North America from July to September.[4]
The species is inedible.[5]
