fungus for id please

[Naturenutz]

I Found 3 or 4 of these about a metre apart in mixed broadleaved woodland.
I have no idea of what goroup these belong too as they are new to me.
The nearest i can find is lactarious but i am probably way off the mark.the largest and oldest specimen was probably 60mm cap(upturned in photo).most were young ones as in the photo's.
Any ideas appreciated

Hi

The first thing to do is always make a spore print:

There are several genus it could belong to:

If the spores are white it may be a mycena
If the spores are suff brown possible an Inocybe
If pink perhaps an Entoloma
If the are rust brown it is most likely to be a Cortinarius

There is a rusty brown area at the bottom of the stem if these are spores then I would say most likely a Cortinarius

It looks like Mycena pura

... except that Mycena pura has a smooth stem, rather than a fibrillose one.

Lepista sordida is a possibility (but spore print would be the starting point, as already indicated).

I too think that this has the right jizz for Lepista, though I'm prepared to go no further

I've learned from the best ^
