I’ll bet that it’s an edible one, tho.

with a smooth whitish cap and double rings would not be my first guess on this one.

It sure does

look like that one. The more I look at the pictures, the more they resemble each other.

sure looks an awful lot like this one…

I only managed to save a small corner of the cap from the bugs and that got mixed in with some blewits and eaten.
It was also fruiting in close proximity to these observations:
64378 – http://mushroomobserver.org/64378?q=3rnV
64375 – http://mushroomobserver.org/64375?q=3rnV
64374 – http://mushroomobserver.org/64374?q=3rnV
And some Clitocybe nuda which are everywhere right now.
Lastly, thanks for the input from everyone.
