Description
Gastrosuillus is a unique group of underground fungi closely related to boletes. Unlike typical mushrooms, they produce their spores inside enclosed structures that remain below the soil surface. These fungi form important symbiotic relationships with certain pine trees, aiding in nutrient exchange. Some species in this group have a distinctive net-like pattern on their outer surface.
