Guess that Mushroom! 4

I'm starting this thread in spirit of the guess the rock thread. If you guess the genus and species correctly and get confirmation from the poster, you get to post the next mushroom to identify. Please only post mushrooms with clues and details which make it identifiable. Blurry pictures and rare mushrooms are fair game, as long as the picture contains sufficient detail to determine the species. If you don't post microscopic details, any member of the correct genus which is a 100% macroscopic match will be considered correct.
If no followup mushroom is posted within 48 hours after a correct guess, anyone may post the next mushroom.
I will start with this one:

Is there an official protest system for this thread.

Genus and species? What if the person posting has no idea what they found, do we go with group consensus?

Yes, you can protest by posting in this thread.
The mushroom you guessed is an Australian mushroom and I found this a couple days ago in Mexico. I wasn't sure what it was when I first spotted it, but the taste gave it away.
I had a really good one that no one would have guessed, but I uploaded it to MO a few minutes ago and I know like half you people check MO....

It would be a good idea to post mushrooms that you know the identity of, otherwise it would be hard to say yes or no to various guesses.

I love games! I'm going to wait for more clues though maybe, but I pretty much only know mushrooms from the Eastern US so Mexican mushrooms are kind of out of my league.

It's an eastern US mushroom. There are a lot of those in Mexico.

Chrysomphalina?
I'm sure there are a lot of names of Eastern US mushrooms being used in Mexico, I'm not so sure they are really the same mushrooms though, but close enough that those might be the best names available.
