could be, but looks more like Hygrocybe laetissima or Hygrocybe acutoconica to me.

Hygrocybe conica group

Alan corrected me a few days ago on MO, I was calling ones I found near SF H.singeri because I often use MRC as a guide. However I guess DNA is not sequencing matches with the original type so now it’s back to H. conica.

I read that too, but if I remember/understand correctly, he said it's very rare to non existant on the coast. Also, that it is more montane species.

I was going to write exactly the same comment as yours, but then i saw this is santa cruz mntns find, so maybe it's singeri after all.

Yeah I’m not sure, I still consider SC mountains as the coast.

elevation would be the biggest difference among others obviously but that is a pretty big difference.

H.laetissima, from what i see, is more red colored and it doesn't bruise black. Ussually it doesn't have witch hat appearence.

H.autoconica is pretty similar, so i don't know.

Sometimes it's just impossible to differentiate species without scope, hell, sometimes you can't tell them apart with scope. DNA sequencing is good, i don't understand it unfortunately. Hopefully some day i will.
