The genus Strobilomyces is distinguished from Boletus principally by the scaly caps of its members. The only well-known European species is Strobilomyces strobilaceus (formerly S. floccopus). It is uncommon and its sombre coloration and its habitat in dark woods make it elusive. In English it is sometimes called the Old Man of the Woods.

Many more species have come to light from warmer countries. The mycologist E. J. H. Corner described several new species from Malaysia including S. mirandus
