I don't know about that for sure, but I don't think so. I think it was named after someone named Blewett, not the blewits.

I read your comment about the chanterelle on my blog. I'm not certain if it was a chanterelle or not--definitely bright orange, no gills.

I will go out and fetch it home and take a closer look at it. I would be delighted if it were truly a chanterelle . However, I suspect that it might be a Boletus or Suillus species, especially as the mushroom I found was growing under a Douglas Fir.

Thanks for the comment!
