¶ Why this species, in the context of the Amsterdamse Bos
The beukenzuilen (beech columns) near the Radarterrein form one of the Bos's most recognisable stands. Beech is the host of Lactarius blennius, L. subdulcis, Russula fellea, and Cortinarius species — including, per the existing dossier, the NL-first Cortinarius variiformis. The gnarled beeches near Bloesempark are smooth-barked landmarks.
