Waxcap #13 and major new species - Papillate Waxcap

Great to find a new Waxcap speices on site but especially brilliant for it to be a rare one. I was fairly confident I had found the Papillate Waxcap (Hygrocybe subpapillata) as I had pretty much eliminated anything else it could be but confirmation came yesterday from DNA analysis. There are very few records of this fungus!
