Description:
Original observation #2811 (Mushroom Observer)
Occurrence Remarks:
Ok, not sure about these, like I say with almost every Russula sighting... These are good size, and have exactly the same taster at the R. simillima I've been calling the other ones, taking 10-20 secs. to build up to acrid, and then not quite as acrid as R. cremoricolor. The caps are kinda purple-red when young, but then fade to a light lilac-pink in the older ones. I even found some really old beat up whitish ones near by, but they were too beat up tell if they are the same maybe, or just some old R. cremoricolor.
