   This is not what I use to call Lactarius deliciosus, but the american   
   authors Hesler & Smith have reduced several other species to varieties   
   of L. deliciosus. Among them is also the european L. deterrimus, which   
   it resembles more.   
   The character with direct green colouring when it's bruised, fits   
   another variety that grows in the Pacific Northwest -   
   Lactarius deliciosus var. olivaceosordidus.
