Laccaria sp.
About 60mm across; cap shiny, orange-red, depressed at centre, shallow domed; stipe same colour as top, thick, fibrous, opaque; gills a paler version of the orange-red, slightly decurrent, adnexed.
Growing from very damp soil with all sorts of forest debris. Several within the immediate area but not close together. In eucalyptus rain forest in national park.
Still hoping for a species ID...
