 Pine Plantation Finds - Vic, Aus

Decided to go for a hunt in a pine plantation just to see what I could find. I had never been there before and it was about 50km out of my way, but I wanted to see what was out there. It was amazing just how many mushrooms were in there! There were so many different species and they were everywhere.
I wanted to find some edibles but couldn't find any young enough. There were thousands of Slippery Jacks (but they aren't very appealing) and Saffron Milk Caps were everywhere but were all too big and old.
My horrible photography skills meant that most of the pics I took were useless, but here are a few.
Amanita muscaria
This was my favourite photo of the day
and some more... the middle pic was the size if a dinner plate
  
Pholioa sp.?
 
A very rotten Ileodictylon (maybe I. gracile)
A star shaped Lepiota sp.
Russula sp. - these were actually a deep purple colour with yellow tinged gills. I don't know why they look red in the photo. They looked like Russula purpureoflava but that's prob way off.
Maybe Hypholoma
 
Unknown 1
 
Unknown 2 (very bad photos)
 
Any ID suggestions are welcome  I hope the pics aren't too bad.
As I was rushing back to the car before it got too dark I also stumbled upon a dozen or so Psilocybe subaeruginosa, a perfect end to the day.

Thanks Allan  
Tapinella is a new name for me and I never realised how varied the genus Gymnopilus was.
Could the Pholiota be P. mutabilis? I looked up P. squarrosoides and they looked more scaley than my pics.
