   I think I would've remembered this, if only seeing it in a field guide.   
     The gills are very broad and distant.  These are fairly diminutive.   
   The cap about 1" diameter in the largest.  The stem of the nearest   
   specimen was completely split along the length, showing it to be solid   
   and thick.
