Brown Bolete

Went to my son's new school today. Mushrooms everywhere. Found some puffballs,
Lepiota (cristata I think) that were growing in clusters with neat orange bruising,
Leucocoprinus birnbaumii,
some unknown species I have seen before in a HUGE cluster,
and one similar smaller cluster that were white instead of buff.
And two others.
One is a bolete. It's dark chocolate brown and has white flesh, and brownish pores. Not sure of the species yet, but I'm looking at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boletus_aereus which is not supposed to grow here... says it's European and western N. American, but it looks a lot like that. Pore color is apparently wrong too...
I can't find a brown bolete that looks like this one, but it looks cool.
Pics:
The last one I'm going to make a different thread for. In my opinion, it's a Psilocybe cubensis. It was growing on wood chips. I can't explain it, and it was growing solo, and it was sun baked and the cap was cracked, but somehow, it was there, and it shouldn't have been. I'm sure it will be controversial, but I've seen P. cubensis mycellium on wood before, and this is definitely the case here.
Here's one pic to whet the appetite...
you can clearly see it attached to a wood chip, and bluing.
Anyway, I'd like help on the Bolete ID. And if anyone knows what the buff and white species are, that would be cool too. I'll probably post more pics of those, because the scale isn't represented well in the pics. Let's just say, with regard to the buff colored ones, it's one of the largest clusters of mushrooms I have ever seen.

Your lepiota looks like americana, they start out yellowish orange then it turns to that deep red color you can see in the pic.

I've found tylopilus before. It wasn't like this, it was much firmer. and the pore surface was MUCH shallower. I dunno if this is it, but I'll taste it for the bitter hell that is tylopilus.
I will be so pissed if it is...

The taste of Tylopilus indecisus is mild. What, in your opinion, differentiates it from this mushroom?

Well, we know two things.
1. It is more than likely a Tylopilus. 2. It isn't T. indecisus.
