Lilac Blewit

Yes.. I would say you are right.. Thanks Neil

Here's day 2 of Lepista sublilacina - http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/308... and day 3 - http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/313... What do you think, Chris?

I'm leaning towards Lilac Blewit (Lepista sublilacina), simply because of the shape of the cap, colour, and stem which has that grainy appearance. Pics and notes - http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/310... But the loose gills make me second-guess. Another consideration is an ID Mark made for this same spotting - Mauve Waxy Gills (Hygrocybe lewellinae) https://lesjh.files.wordpress.com/2012/0... but the stem confuses me here. Both good places to start your research. I observed my spotting over several days, hence the series of 3 spottings. A one-off spotting can make things so much harder. It took me almost 2 years to positively ID my spotting.

Thanks Neil..

I'm thinking Lepista species, Chris. Will check it out for you.
