Boletus subtomentosus, I know this mushroom more or less well! It indeed looks very similar to the one you found... It has such distinctive features: the cap is rough, velvety by the touch. And the most important: the stem and cap, when cut, turn very fancy blue color, within a few seconds! I will now search and find a suitable photo from my folders.

definitely a bolete of some kind and if you found them under conifers

I am more then sure, this is a nice detail: 'under conifers '. Suillus sp. are very fond of conifers, we have them growing there, and always pick them up under pines. I am more then sure it is one of this family, Suillus sp. I cant name exactly which one. But all of them are edible, as far as I know. Oh, and look: in several photos the cap looks glossy, shiny, sticky - these are the distinctive features of Suillus sp. And besides, it would be nice to examine younger mushrooms at the beginning of their lifecycle - in this case, the edge of the cap is pressed to the stem with a film, it looks very characteristic and indicates Suillus.

oh, and warmly welcome to the Fungi Lovers community. Your awesome post deserves a good rewarding, as we are part of #OCD Incubating Program, I will nominate your post for the support.

Hope there will be much more happy and intresting finds in the future.
PPS. You are living by the southern sea - I am so jealous for you!

They were shiny, indeed. I haven't touched them, neither cut them to see if they turn into blue. Maybe if we go next time there, I will take a cutter with me and check it out.

Thank you πŸ’ž

I hope as well, but definitely not in the place where we live. But up, in the mountains by the lake, probably there are more of them.

I saw one in this "condition", is it the same type?

mushrooms are ephemera, they do not wait so long :P
especially when the climate is wet..
in dry conditions, well, then they stay longer..

this is how the cut look like changing cover to blue:

Haha, so these are not going to wait for me πŸ˜… but maybe some new ones will grow.

I was freezing there πŸ˜‚ so, there are two options, or better clothing or wait until spring 😁

better clothing is a better option, me thinks. mot shrooms will not pop up in the spring - the most season will be from mid-summer till autumn

Yes, finally shroomies :-D

I checked now, but they look a bit smaller than the ones I found, but definitely the geography and the type of forest matches.

Thanks @fraenk for your comment, soon we are going to see some great shots made by you, right? :-)
