Description
A mischievous mole popping up from her hiding spot in A cream- or buff-coloured mushroom, the cap may reach 20 cm (8 in) in diameter. It has a prominent boss and looks small in relation to the large stem in young specimens. As the mushroom ages, the cap changes from convex with inrolled margins to more funnel shaped. The decurrent gills are the same colour as the cap. The stipe is bulbous, larger at the base and 10�20 cm (4�8 in) high. The spore print is white. There is a sweet smell,[3] which has been likened to the odour of bitter almonds.[1] The white flesh is firm in young specimens.[4]
It can be mistaken for the similar-coloured and also edible miller (Clitopilus prunulus), but the latter species has pink spores.[1] However there are a number of similar white or pale mushrooms which are poisonous;[1] young specimens of Entoloma sinuatum can be distinguished by their sinuate gills and mealy smell.[4] The unpleasant-tasting Melanoleuca grammopodia is similar, but has a more pale brownish cap and musky odour.
