I would call this X. chrysenteron but for one thing: the stem slowly stains a pale blue. That would lead to X. cisalpinus, according to First Nature, except it is not identified commonly in our area. This was found with a number of others like it under a paper birch, so I am hesitant to drag X. dryophilus in as a candidate. Supposedly each Xerocomellus above bears some resemblance to Imleria badia (bay bolete). In his entry for X. chrysenteron Kuo says it is "undoubtedly a collective species in North America." So I will note it and leave it at genus.
Other notes: large, deep, angular yellow pores; rhubarb stick stem with longitudinal grooves.

Under oak, amid ivy.
Turns out, according to the experts at NYMS, that while this is a choice edible for some, about 20% of those who eat it have a nontrivial allergic reaction some hours later that entails more than one orifice. Advice given is to go very slowly, first sniffing, putting against the lip, and if cooking and eating tasting a tiny amount, like only a few grams. For future reference:

Another report on the related L. sulphureus:

The article above says a "small percentage," so 20% may be an overstatement, but the takeaway remains: this can make some unlucky mycophagists less or more sick.
