Sorry about the incomplete ID request. My roommate went on a hike today and was kind enough to take this pic for me so I don't have the specimen.
Habitat: Central NJ USA
Gills: ?
Stem: 5cm long, white, no ring
Cap: Brown with nipple, wrinked and cracked. Darker ring on outer part in younger specimens. Concave.
Spore print color: No information available.
Bruising: No information available.
Other information: They're not very big.

The Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Mushrooms said, "...the rule of thumb is to avoid any bolete with orange to red pores, especially any that bruises blue."

Not really enough information for an ID, but probably a Psathyrella. Try breaking a stem. Psathyrella species tend to break with an audible snap sound.
Happy mushrooming!

Looks a bit like a Gymnopus sp to me
--------------------
Don’t just keep ones head down and ones pace steady, look behind to make sure there’s no trail of destruction. Consider that the things below ones feet in physicality, are actually above ones head in importance. Remember that we are not the only ones alive, and are definitely not depended upon to continue living. We are an expendable creature in the eyes of the earth. Thus, we must treat ourselves like we are guests. Accommodations must be made for life all over the planet. The power of life is incredibly diverse, intelligent, and intricate in its adaptability. Lets not give nature a reason to consume us in turn.
