This could be the same I found in Australia in the Blue Mountains and that resembled E.bloxamii/pseudobloxamii a lot. …. I’ll have to look for the photos and will post them in future time … keep an eye for it!

Yes, although on white paper they look more pinkish brown, the colour can be seen on the stipe in the close up of the gill attachment.

Great pictures and nice micro shots
