Hemileccinum subglabripes is a fungus of the family Boletaceae. It was first described by Charles Horton Peck in 1887 as Boletus subglabripes.[2] In 2015 it was transferred to Hemileccinum based on DNA evidence.[3]
The brownish cap is 3–10 centimetres (1+1⁄4–4 in) wide. The yellowish stem is 4.5–10 cm (1+3⁄4–4 in) tall and 1–2 cm (1⁄2–3⁄4 in) thick.[4] The flesh is yellow, sometimes staining light blue. The smell and taste are mild. The spore print is olive brown.[4]
It can be found in eastern North America from July to September. It is associated with hardwood trees.[4]
The species is edible but softens quickly.[5]
