        Hi Phil, welcome to the group.

        I think the spore print is pink like the gills. You need to be looking at Entoloma.

        Regards, Chris

          Many thanks Chris,

          Entoloma conferendum seems to pretty much fit the bill

          I’ve made mistake before with Pluteus – rejecting a whole genus, which turned out to be the right one, because the spore print wasn’t, to my eyes, pink.

          I think I must be colour blind – or maybe just pink-blind

          Cheers,

          Phil
