There are hundreds of species in this genus that have yet to be named. With the greenish cap I thought it might be C. austrovenetus the yellowish tinge to the gills also made me think of this species. Though not enough intensity of colour maybe due to age. So to be on the safe side I've just left it at Cortinarius sp.. Green fungi are not all that common. Well spotted.
