Originally described as Boletus moravicus by Václav Vacek in 1946, it was transferred to the genus Aureoboletus by Wolfgang Klofac in 2010.[3] It is an uncommon bolete of unknown edibility that appears as a vulnerable species on some European Red Lists,[4] and is considered critically endangered in the Czech Republic.[5] Preferred habitats include parklands, near oak trees.[4]
