The over all viscidity is a more important feature, esp. the very viscid stipe. I don’t think L. kauffmanii has a viscid stipe? If so, not that viscid, the times I remember seeing it. Also the gills of L. pseudomucidus aren’t really grey, hardly grey at all really, just off white. True, these are rather brown, but they are grey enough… Plus they are smallish and thin fleshed. So, anyway, that would be my guess from 7000 miles away…
but pseudomucidus really isn’t either, if a gray cap and gray gills are an important feature! The cap is brown with darker brown in the center; gills never gray, even in younger material collected at second location.
not gray at all.
Pseudomucidus was actually my first guess in the field, due to the dripping mucous everwhere (I SO did NOT want to bite this mushroom! ;) but the description isn’t really matching up.
