One of many today. I did think it was unlikely to be finding a red data fungus. I should have waited and let Dave get egg on his face  . |

John | Definitely no nasty smell although I did kneel in something fairly unpleasant. |

I find these difficult when I have them in my hand, let alone trying to identify from a photo. And really you need to know how the flesh changes colour with time e.g. does it stay orange or go wine red or green.
They are all mycorrhizal species so knowing the associated tree helps a lot. However, none of these species is a larch associate, so saying it was growing under larch doesn't help in narrowing down the options.
That said, the needles and cone visible in the photos are actually 2-needle pine. L. deterrimus tends to be more of a spruce associate, so unless there are any spruce trees around, Lactarius deliciosus is a significant possibility. The zonate cap and scrobiculate stem could well point to L. deliciosus.
I've only ever seen L. quieticolor in Scotland and it is rare. I can't say I could identify it from a photo alone. I'd need more information, myself, but it seems unlikely.

alex | My Collins lists deterrimus and deliciosus as seperate species, not synonyms. From the photos and descriptions given I'd say ours is more likely to be deterrimus - mainly the stipe which has a white collar and should be more pitted for deliciosus. Quote:
