Butyriboletus regius (formerly Boletus regius), commonly known as the royal bolete or red-capped butter bolete, is a basidiomycete fungus of the genus Butyriboletus found in China and Europe. B. regius has a pink cap, yellow flesh, and a reticulate pattern on the stem.[1] Harry D. Thiers described a similar mushroom from California as B. regius,[2] though it is not the same species. B. regius in Europe does not stain when exposed to air,[1] or stains weakly,[3] but the California species stains blue.[4] Both European and California species are considered choice edibles.[5]
