"Rhizopogon" is a genus of hypogeous Basidiomycetes. Recent and molecular phylogenetic study has established that "Rhizopogon" is a member of the Boletales, closely related to "Suillus". All species of "Rhizopogon" are ectomycorrhizal and are thought to play an important role in the ecology of coniferous forests. "R. luteolus" was deliberately introduced into "Pinus radiata" plantations in Western Australia to improve tree growth in the early part of the 20th century.
