White gills, but purple on top and stalk. Cortinarius archeri?? Various points between Pikes Saddle and Badja Trig on the Badja Firetrail

The white gills don't fit the Cortinarius archeri group. I'm wondering of they were a lilac shade. Then Cortinarius archeri becomes possible, but Lepista nuda is similar (see the comments at https://canberra.naturemapr.org/Community/Species/Sightings/17418). A view of the stem would be useful - to see if there is a veil remanant and any deposited spores (e.g. Fungus Cortinarius archeri s.l. on 28 Apr 2017 or Fungus Cortinarius archeri s.l. on 21 Mar 2019).
