Suillus cavipes is an edible species of mushroom in the genus Suillus.[2] It is found in Europe and North America. It is associated with larch in the Pacific Northwest.[3]

The brownish cap is dry, scaly, sometimes with veil remnants on the edge. The pores are buff. The stipe is yellowish above, sometimes with a slight ring, and cap-colored below; it is hollow, hence the epithet cavipes (Latin: 'hollow foot').[3]
