Abstract
Information on the records of Suillus acidus var. intermedius in the Northern Urals (Pechora-Ilych Nature Reserve) is given. This species, characterized by predominantly North American distribution, was previously noted in Russia only from the Tomsk Region. The finding of the species in Pechora-Ilych Nature Reserve is its first record in Europe. S. acidus var. intermedius is characterized by fruit bodies of the boletoid type, convex, slimy, yellow-brown cap, and stem with ring covered with black glandular dots. From closely related species it differs by acid taste of the cap cuticle (S. subalutaceus), yellowish or yellow-brown cap (S. acidus, S. salmonicolor), the presence of a distinct ring on stem and lacking scales on the cap (S. sibiricus). The article provides a detailed morphological description of the species, accompanied by line drawings and color photos.
