Lurid boletes on a traffic island

Lurid boletes on a traffic island

More summer mushrooms. These lurid boletes were growing on the traffic island outside the Paget Road site of Wolverhampton College. They are quite cummon urban summer mushrooms, on lawns or, as here, on wood chip mulch. I’m not sure how they got their name, To me, they are, if anything, rather more subdued in colour than some other bolete species.
