Looks like A ochrophylloides...
I guess this is an Amanita species. But which subsection you should check, leaves even me blank!
You're right guys. I have not better option and can't find anything about it that denies. Yet another C.brunneum. Thanks.
It sure looks like a type of Shaggy Parasol to me.
We mustn't feel discouraged - I've heard they confuse those who spent their whole life on it martin. :-( My C.brunneum had pure white gills and this one has not much sign of having been chocolate brown on top like your and my C.b....
These creatures still confuse me but here's my guess; Chlorophyllum brunneum? http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/111...
