Garlic Waxcap at New Grove

A new species for me - found at nearby New Grove Meadows. Brilliantly it smells faintly of garlic which helps a lot with the ID. A microscopic examination was also done as basically apart from the smell and the lab work it is difficult to nail down being very similar to the Vermillion Waxcap in most respects.
