   I have looked in my old copy of Phillips and another   
   UK book by Marcel Bon.   
   A. ceceliae has two synonyms: A. inaurata and   
   A. strangulata. Phillips has actual photographs, Bon   
   has drawings, but they are obviously the same mushroom.   
   What puzzles me is that Phillips does not use the   
   ceceliae species name, but his book has been updated   
   and the new copy may do.
