A Generally Frightening Mushroom...

...at least to my eye. Foul smell... bright yellows and greens... untouched by insects of any kind. I'd bet a dollar that these would make me quite ill.
Habitat: Central NJ USA clustered around a stump. Gills: Free. Gray with brown and green tones. Stem: 10cm long, 0.5cm wide, brown becoming bright greenish-yellow towards cap. Ring: None present. Cap: 4-8cm wide, Light brown with some cracking. Spore print color: IP, but a thumb rub across the gills was charcoal-black Bruising: No immediate bruising. Perhaps blue-black over time. Scent: BLEACH. Cleared out my sinuses, and I can smell them from across the room! Reminds me of an Amanita bisporigera that I found this summer.

Only problem is the bleachy smell. mushroomexpert says that the smell is not distinctive on H. fasciculare

Another problem is, that's the only name you're gonna get for them.
