Pileus 3-7 cm broad, convex to applanate, crimson carmine at first then becoming pink, subtomentose, minutely cracking towards the margin.

Spore print pale ochraceous brown. Spores 18-22 × 8-9.5 μm, elliptical, surface with 7-9 faintly longitudinally striae on each face. Basidia 54-61 × 18-21 μm, elongately clavate, sterigmata 2, 6 μm long. Pleurocystidia 60-130 × 19-23 μm, ventricose, apex obtuse. Tube trama of phylloproid type.

Note：
This species reminds one macroscopically of Boletellus emodensis, but the two species are distinguishable in the field by the differences in their morphological characters. B. obscurecoccineus has pink pileus and stipe, both with carmine fibrils and scurfy warts on the surface, as compared to those of Boletellus emodensis.
