Observation 9747: Lactarius rubrilacteus Hesler & A.H. Sm.
Collected during the 2003 Oregon Mycological Society’s Fall Mushroom Forage at Camp Macgruder, Tillamook Co., OR.
This looks like an example of the paler/greener form of this species. I wish there was an image of the inside and some habitat information. I’ve been reviewing the observations of this species and they seem to roughly fall into two forms. However, I suspect the forms are weather induced rather than being distinct populations.
