Anyone know what type of fungi this is? Came across it in Glen Feshie way back in September. It kind of looks like a bracket fungi but it was growing out of soil.

My first thought is Clitopilus prunulus a Pink Gill of grassland habit. Has an absent or rudimentary stem so may appear stemless especially when older.
