I agree that it is too small for Macrolepiota, however cystoagaricus has much more pronounced warts on the cap.

The Macro in MACROlepiota means big, this is a very small mushroom. The cap on this mushroom is about 2-3 cm wide. This is Cystoagaricus strobilomyces. https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQDYYf8rnHc8VaEe1K3XcxZbdEDaWrVpHGA1NuXbApbh9JGc3Ir7w
