Red-pored, blue-staining boletes whose pores tend to exude yellowish droplets, with a coarse, elongated, often raised stem reticulum. Circumscribed by Vizzini, Simonini & Gelardi in 2014; briefly merged into Butyriboletus (Wu et al. 2016) but later resolved as a separate sister genus.
Pores: red to reddish orange, often beaded with yellowish droplets. Stem: distinctly elongated, raised reticulation. Four species: E. permagnificus (type, Europe/West Asia), E. ruber (East Asia), E. floridanus and E. frostii (North America).
