could be maybe genus tricholoma ( http://www.google.nl/search?hl=nl&cp=10&gs_id=10&xhr=t&q=tricholoma&safe=off&gs_sm=&gs_upl=&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.,cf.osb&biw=1199&bih=660&wrapid=tljp1326920550046015&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=jDMXT7afN6jjiALLuMm5Dw ) or hebeloma ( http://www.google.nl/search?hl=nl&safe=off&q=hebeloma&gs_sm=s&gs_upl=0l0l1l3833l0l0l0l0l0l0l0l0ll0l0&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.,cf.osb&biw=1199&bih=660&wrapid=tlif132692065614210&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=9TMXT82TL5CVOuvC_fcD ). Can not help much further,it seems this mushroom has residu of a annolus. the white broken stuff at the edge of the cap. when i find something more specific, i will let you know.!!! -----------BTW---I have some months ago, written to you about: the picture size at the black slide-show: everytime i choose another picture to look at, the picture-size reduced until they are smaller than the user-profile-pictures. I HAD NOT GET A REPLY, another question is: some members would like to see (if possible), a category for "slime mold/myxomycota" (no animal/plant/ or fungi), it would be categorized , together with some algae. Till now: i categorize them as "fungi" (because mushroom/fungi-dr are still research on slime mold) , another member set them as "others", and yet another member, will wait with upload his "amoebozoa"-spottings, until this question is cleared!! most of the other people, just throw them into fungi or others, but in both isn't it at the right place. ----Hope to get a reply, this time !!!! this time i will keep on it!!! thanks for your time in advance !!
