Wild Mushrooms of Ainsworth: Russula

I believe this is some species of Russula. It looks like the picture of Shellfish-scented Russula in my mushroom guide, but I didn't smell shellfish! Maybe you have to get closer to it than I did.

The cap is about 2" in diameter.

Found growing all by its lonesome on the forest floor in Deep River County Park.
