The bolete genus name Rubinoboletus Pilát & Dermek has been misapplied in the past to include taxa belonging to several genera including Tylopilus P.Karst. In this study, we provide morphological and molecular phylogenetic justification for alignment of Rubinoboletus phaseolisporus T.H.Li, R.N.Hilton & Watling in Tylopilus with the North American taxon T. balloui (Peck) Singer. Thus, a new combination, Tylopilus phaseolisporus (T.
