A nice image showing the texture of the cap and zones of colour typical of this species.

I've revised the identification of this species after seeing a number of different examples. They look as though they may be one of the fire-responsive fungi such as a Laccocepphalum species. I will research this and hopefully come back with an answere in a few days.
