Hi KeenTeen - you probably won't get anywhere with it I'm afraid - you have to start off knowing the colour of a thick, fresh, spore deposit (matched against a colour chart) before you can even attempt to get into any available keys to name Russula's !

They always look big and brightly coloured thus one assumes easy to identify but they never are !!
