Rare
A grassland toadstool found mainly in Scotland and Wales where it is rare.
Superficially resembling one of the dull brown species of Hygrocybe, it is distinguished by the mealy smell and colour changing red then black on bruising.
With its mealy smell and blackening flesh it could easily be confused with Lyophyllum eustygium, however the spore print is amyloid and the spores are larger and more elongate.
