Xerocomellus truncatus belongs to a well-known family of mushrooms that typically have a bulbous stem and a stout cap. Its cap tends to change color as it matures, often starting slightly velvety before becoming smoother. The stem, which may appear almost trunk-like, gives xerocomellus truncatus a distinctive posture among forest vegetation, where it prefers to grow.
