A bit of a challenge this one as a bit old and starting to be infected by a white parasitic fungus. Though the shape of the caps, colour of the gills in particular and a small deposit of spores on the top of the cap of the front left specimen. This genus is mycorrhizal and is one that tends to come towards the end of the season.
