Slippery Jack
Suillus luteus

Slippery Jack is usually found among conifers during late summer and autumn. They are more apt to be found in autumn and the last of the boletes to still be around. If you spot one there are usually several more in close proximity. The slime layer over the cap should be peeled away before cooking because this can produce diarrhea in many people. Also, this mushroom has been known to cause allergic reactions to individuals, so caution is advised.
