Spot the difference!

Fruity Brittlegill (Russula queletii, top) and Primrose Brittlegill (Russula sardonia, bottom)
The Russula queletii grows near spruce, the Russula sardonia near pine.
When compared side by side, the Russula sardonia can be seen to have a darker, redder stem.
Both inedible. Sharp taste.
