    Absolutely beautiful Russula. Did you notice any odor? Russulas can be pretty hard to identify past genus level in general, but you could possibly narrow it down to a handful of candidates. Posted 4 years ago

      Thanks Lisa. It did not have any odor. I looked at the crab brittlegill however I found this in a Eucalyptus forest not in a conifer forest. Posted 4 years ago

The Russula persanguinea

''Russula persanguinea'' is a species of agaric fungus in the family Russulaceae. Described as new to science by John Burton Cleland in 1933, it is found in Australia, where it grows singly or in small groups on the ground in eucalypt forests and woodlands. It resembles the common Northern Hemisphere species ''Russula emetica''.
