Waxcap #6 Citrine Waxcap

Quite a few around as usual although this is apparently a rare to occasional Waxcap. I have to look closely to check whether a specimen is a Citrine Waxcap or a more common Persistent Waxcap but a greeny tint to the cap and similar to the whitish gills does distinguish it as the Persistent Waxcap is usually yellow in both cap and gills. Old photo as the fruiting ones today were looking well past their best.
