The hilar appendix body is reported in the basidiospore primordium of Boletus rubinellus as well as the subsequent development of the hilar appendix through spore maturation. The hilar appendix body is similar in its morphology and pattern of development to that in Coprinus spp. The evolutionary implications of the results are discussed.
