Try to key it out using the genus Cortinarius!

I think that Lepista nuda has a more redish-purple color to it and Lactarius indigo has another shape. This leads me to think that this is Cortinarius violaceus.

I think it needs a shot of the underside (and maybe even a microscope) to identify it. It could be a purple Cortinarius species. I'm not sure whether Lepista nuda ever has this shade of purple but I guess it could be that also?
