Given that it's amongst pine needles, I'd guess this is a species of Suillus (one of the bolete genera). There are a few introduced species of Suillus that you find associated with non-native trees.
Heino given the association of this genus with pines are they also an introduced genus or are they natives that are adapted to growing amongst pines needles?
