Growing on damp earth in wood clearing. Two. Cap 5.5-7cm. Slight smell, perhaps radishy. Very hard to identify this mushroom. Could be a type of Entoloma (Pink Gill), but these spores are too small. Could be another type of Pluteus but this one is my best guess. Also, Pluteus ephebeus is very variable. ID is possible. Sporeprint Brownish pink. Spores 5.5-7.5µ x 5-6.5µ.
