Hey guys, just wanted to post my finds. Still no weilii. I did however find an Amanita Muscaria! Technically, my buddy found it so props to you dude if you're reading. ; ) I realized afterward that some people are interested in Amanita so if you are, let me know and I'll print one for you next time I visit this patch. I'm gonna guess on the first one, however I always love being corrected when it comes to mycology, it just means I get to learn something! : ) Chlorophyllum Molybdites, due mostly to the green spores. They are trich-colored spores on white gills, the second, I'm 99.9 percent sure is Amanita Muscaria. I don't know of any true look-alikes, even though there are other scaly amanitas, not sure about the last two. The yellow ones and that tan one that are all in the same pic were found under some pines in a neighborhood, and then last pic of the LBMs was found kinda deep in a pine forest. Sorry for the quality on the last two. Cell phone cam was all that was available at the time.

I think the most identifying factor for Muscaria from other Amanitas is the vulva (very base of the stem) has concentric rings on it. They can get washed away with rain, but if I didn't see those I wouldn't trust it. Amanita's are hard enough and dangerous enough to ID that I'm pretty cautious about doing so.
I don't really see concentric rings on yours, but maybe it's due to handling. If you think you remember that you saw them, but you're not positive, I would rather throw them out than risk it.
 Notice the rings on the stem?
