Suillus kunmingensis is a species of bolete fungus in the family Suillaceae. It was described as new to science in 1948 by Wei-Fan Chiu as a species of Boletinus;[2] Wang and Yao transferred it to the genus Suillus in a 2004 nomenclatural revision of several Chinese boletes.[3] The species epithet alludes to the type localityKunming, China—where the first scientific collections of the bolete were made in November, 1941.[2] It has also been recorded from Sichuan. Similar Suillus species include S. pinetorum and S. punctatipes.[3]
