Russulas are nicknamed" brittlegills" because of the fragile nature of their gills. Lightly press against them with a fingernail, if it crumbles, its a russula. If it splits&exudes a milky substance its a lactarius, if it resists then you're barking up the wrong mushroom family tree.

Could be a Clitocybe or Leucopaxillus.

Those cross-sections put me in mind of Clitocybe as well.
