Thanks Alison
This one is screwy - used for testing - will try to fix.

Hi Heino
I hope my ID is correct. I tried to make it a suggestion only, several times, but it came up as confirmed.

Hi Aaron
I will send you a note later. We have a little bug whereby the Undo function is faulty.

This looks like a species of Laccaria to me, the striations showing on the cap look too prominent for the red/orange Dermocybe species I'm familiar with. An image from underneath showing stipe and gills could have been helpful.

Hi Ken & Pam
I've ID'd it as you suggested.
I had to suggest & confirm it via an Admin trick because this record is a bit screwy.
