Laccaria species
Description:
We are supposed to only have one species of Laccaria that has two spored basida here in New Zealand, and that is Laccaria fraterna. So it's odd that I find this nice pink one that does not match the description of L. fraterna. Or should I be asking why has this common species gone unnoticed for so long? It presently has the tag name of Laccaria species "milnethorpe".
