Assessment Notes
Motivate assessment
Justification
Suillus flavidus is a fungus forming mycorhizas with coniferous trees (pine) in bogs. A rare species of a threatened habitat with narrow ecological range, a showy, edible species.
Preliminary global red-list assessment; LC (Least Concern)
Taxonomic notes
Syn. Boletus elegans, Suillus elegans
Why suggested for a Global Red List Assessment?
Geographic range
Population and Trends
In Italy known from 5 regions only (Onofri 2005), in Switzerland known from 25 sites, in Baden-Württemberg from 26 sites, in Austria from 11 sites, which clearly indicates its rarity in central and southern Europe. As the species is confined to bogs which underwent great losses in the last 70 years we can assume losses.
Population Trend:
Habitat and Ecology
a very specialized species of bogs, ectomycorrhizal with Pinus mugo var. montana
Threats
habitat destruction, air-borne pollutants and climate change lead to habitat changes threatening even protected sites.
Conservation Actions
Strict habitat conservation. In central Europe most bogs profit from the status of a nature reserve, therefore the prospects are moderately favorable for this species.
Research needed
