ŠUTARA J. (2008): Xerocomus s. l. in the light of the present state of knowledge.   [Boletaceae, Xerocomus, Xerocomellus, Hemileccinum, generic taxonomy, anatomy, histology]  Czech Mycology 60(1): 29-62   (published: 4th July, 2008)
  abstract   The definition of the generic limits of Xerocomus s. l. and particularly the delimitation of this genus from Boletus is very unclear and controversial. During his study of European species of the Boletaceae, the author has come to the conclusion that Xerocomus in a wide concept is a heterogeneous mixture of several groups of species. These groups are separated from each other by different anatomical and some other characters. Also recent molecular studies show that Xerocomus s. l. is not a monophyletic group. In agreement with these facts, the European species of Xerocomus s. l. whose anatomy was studied by the present author are here classified into the following, more distinctly delimited genera: Xerocomus s. str., Phylloporus, Xerocomellus gen. nov., Hemileccinum gen. nov. and Pseudoboletus.Boletus badius and Boletus moravicus, also often treated as species of Xerocomus, are retained for the present in the genus Boletus. The differences between Xerocomus s. str., Phylloporus, Xerocomellus, Hemileccinum, Pseudoboletus and Boletus (which is related to this group of genera) are discussed in detail. Two new genera, Xerocomellus and Hemileccinum, and necessary new combinations of species names are proposed.

ŠUTARA J. (2005): Central European genera of the Boletaceae and Suillaceae, with notes on their anatomical characters.   [Boletaceae, Suillaceae, generic taxonomy, anatomical characters]  Czech Mycology 57(1-2): 1-50   (published: 31st August, 2005)
  abstract   A taxonomic survey of Central European genera of the familiesBoletaceae and Suillaceae with tubular hymenophores, including the lamellate Phylloporus, is presented. Questions concerning the delimitation of the bolete genera ar ediscussed. Descriptions and keys to the families and genera are based predominantly on anatomical characters of the carpophores. Attention is also paid to peripheral layers of stipe tissue, whose anatomical structur ehas not been sufficiently studied. The study of these layers, above all of the caulohymenium and the lateral stipestratum, can provide information important for a better understanding of relationships between taxonomic groups in these families. The presence (or absence) of the caulohymenium with spore-bearing caulobasidia on the stipe surface is here considered as a significant generic character of boletes. A new combination, Pseudoboletus astraeicola (Imazeki) Šutara, is proposed.

HOLEC J. (1994): The ultrastructure of the spore wall and ornamentation in the Xerocomus group of Boletus.   [Xerocomus, Boletus, Strobilomyces, ultrastructure, transmission electron microscope, spore wall, ornamentation, taxonomy]  Czech Mycology 47(3): 173-184   (published: 17th June, 1994)
  abstract   The spore wall of five selected species of the Xerocomus group of Boletus was studied with a transmission electron microscope (TEM). The wall is composed of five layers in all the species studied: a very thin electron-dense outer layer 1 (ectosporium), a moderately electron-dense layer 2 (perisporium), a thick and amorphous electron-dense middle layer 3a (exosporium) that passes gradually into a thinner, granular or granular-fibrillar and moderately electron-dense layer *3b (episporium), and an almost electron-transparent layer 4 (endosporium). A smooth spore surface was found in Boletus pulverulentus and B. chrysenteron. A striate exosporium covered by the ectosporium and the perisporium was found in B. pruinatus, rough warts originating from a disrupted perisporium and ectosporium in B. parasiticus, and very fine warts composed of outgrowths of the ectosporium and part of the perisporium in B. subtomentosus. A species of an other group of the Boletales with conspicuous ornamentation (Strobilomyces strobilaceus) was examined as comparative material. The results of this TEM study are compared with SEM photographs of the spores of Xerocomus published by other authors, and methodologicalproblems with the examination of spore wall ornamentation are discussed. The data revealed confirm the high value of spore wall architecture and ornamentation in the taxonomy of this genus. The separation of B. parasiticus in a new genus Pseudoboletus Sutara is supported by its spore wall ornamentation that is unique in the Boletaceae.
