Thanks! Anyone able to give me something more certain?

And what are the dangers if it's an alternative?

Hard to be certain from that one picture. I honestly don't see any obvious blue bruising. The print is also too weak to determine.

You should provide a good gill shot too.

No dangers as long as you don't consume anything you're not 100% certain of.

Thanks for the advice (much as I wish it was a perfect 10).

how long did you leave it for the spore print? sometimes they dont bruise as obviously.

Im starting to get a little more familiar with them now, im recognising the smell. does it smell edible, if its only 1 you found and are not sure, toss it out, but take mental notes of the experience. With my limited knowledge, I find the ones I have identified to be not edible smell a little offensive. Thats a great primal instinct we have like most other species. Just need to learn how to use it. Just look at gill attachments.

Good luck on future foragers

The way a mushroom smells is important to identification, but it is only a single characteristic.  Stating that you can tell a mushroom is edible by a single characteristic is incorrect.  You can't determine edibility by smell alone, any more than you could determine edibility by color of the spores alone.

The only way to determine edibility is to identify the mushroom.

Oh sorry, I didn't realise it came across like that. Thanks for addressing my comment.

I would never eat mushrooms or suggest to do so by smelling it. I usually, check gill colour and attachment, stem colour, obvious spore colour underneath, smell, bruising ,cap colour if applicable and finally spore print and then I give them all a good smell again before I dehydrate them.

I picked what I thought looked like a Gallerina Marginata last time I was out, just an exercise,its not something id want to eat just by smelling it (offensive smell, you can almost taste it through your nose), I can see how the mistake could be made though visually. I tend to forage for weeds and smell is important to me, well for any food i put in my body. Depending on your constitution, I think that applies even for commercially grown food. Trust your senses but as you addressed my previous post, not solely with food that can cause harm.

Thanks again for addressing my post, I wouldn't  want to be responsible for giving out wrong information and that information to cause harm.
