Summary: Lepista sordida

From the literatute I have got: the colour of the cap is very variabile and it is hard to distinguish the species Lepista nuda (syn. Tricholoma nudum)- more brown than violet, Lepista lilaceum (Tricholoma)- more violet, Lepista sordida – red-violet; Lepista sordida grows in the parks and fertile pastures, while the other are all in woods. So the Croatian authors.
As you know the world of fungi is not so exact in telling the right names for the species, and they vary according to the land they grow.

Summary: .

I looked at some photos of this species, and don’t notice any features distinguishable from L. nuda, except a typically less stalky morphology.
What are the macroscopic identifying characteristics of L. sordida??
