Interesting! Just one thing to mess with:

  • In Tax and phylo, portion "The species was first described scientifically by Charles C. Frost in 1874 as Boletus salmonicolor. Mycologist Roy Halling reexamined Frost's type specimen, and in a 1983 publication considered it a Suillus because of its glutinous cap, dotted stem, and ring. He formally transferred it to that genus, and also declared Boletus subluteus (described by Charles Horton Peck in 1887) and Suillus pinorigidus (described by Wally Snell and Esther A. Dick in 1956) to be synonymous. In a 1986 publication on Suillus taxonomy and nomenclature, Mary E. Palm and Elwin L. Stewart noted that fruit bodies of S. subluteus collected in Minnesota did not exhibit the strong salmon colors that are apparently characteristic of S. salmonicolor and in collections that had been named S. pinorigidus."
  • We are ping-ponging from year to synonym :) Let's go in this order: B. salmonicolor -> B. subuletus -> S. pinorigidus -> S. salmonicolor. And insert S. subuletus in the timeline accordingly. I will be happy afta :) Rcej (Robert) - talk 07:40, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Betta! But a couple more nitpicks:
  • Is "S. subluteus collected in Minnesota..." the same collection as B. subluteus (Peck, 1887), under its transfer to Suillus?
  • I've attempted to clarify... basically, there is some evidence that S. subluteus might be a distinct species, despite Halling's claim of conspecifity, but more information is needed to make a determination. Sasata (talk) 05:10, 23 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Were Ixocomus subluteus, Suillus cothurnatus and Boletus luteus var. cothurnatus fairly inconsequential namings?
