It's got a Pluteus vibe but it looks like it's growing on the ground, there could be a buried piece of wood there or it could be Volvopluteus or Volvariela. The only way to tell would be to carefully dig out the base and see if it has a volva or if it's growing out of wood.

There is an old tree stump nearby, so it's possible it was growing on a piece from that.
