Suillus subaureus is a species of bolete fungus in the family Suillaceae. It is found in North America, where it associates with deciduous trees. Originally described in 1887 by Charles Horton Peck,[3] it was transferred to genus Suillus by Wally Snell in 1944.[4] Fruitbodies are pale yellow—reflecting its specific epithet subaureus, which means "somewhat golden yellow". The spore print is olive brown. Spores are smooth and inamyloid, and measure 7–10 by 2.7–3.5 µm.[5] Ithas also been recorded in Taiwan.[6]
