Larch Bolete (Suillus grevillei)

The mushroom Suillus grevillei (Larch Bolete) grows exclusively under Larch trees with which it is mycorrhizal. So, if you want to find it, you might want to first start looking for Larch trees. The Larch tree is a conifer tree that, unlike the other conifers, shed its leaves in the autumn (this can make it easier to find Larches in the mushroom's season).
I found several Larch trees and only one specimen of Suillus grevillei, but it was in June, so this mushroom was not even supposed to be there at that time (I had never found this species in summer before).
Now that the autumn is coming they will start popping up around Larches (check here the specimens of Suillus grevillei that I found last autumn - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RP0oU8lfFKY&t=3m56s )

Another common name is Greville's Bolete.
Other scientific names are Boletus elegans and Boletus grevillei.
