Here's some stuff I found yesterday, hoping I can get some ID's on them. Curious if any of it is edible-
Species 1:




Habitat: On and around dead wood
Gills: Brown, wavy..looks like they were originally whitish but turned brown from drying or aging? 
Stem: Long, 4-6 inches on the biggest one. Curvy. Almost feels like wood its so firm. Whitish with some brown/black areas. White toward the bottom.
Cap: Brown and smooth, cracked apart to reveal white flesh underneath. Pretty curvy as you can see in the pictures. 2-3.5" diameter
Bruising: None observed
Spore print: Got no print from it..again, probably because its too old/rotted?
Species 2:



Habitat: growing out of moist dirt, near a drainage outlet.
Gills: White/offwhite
Stem: Thick, twisty, white. Solid. 3-4" long
Cap: Mostly green. Brown spot in the middle. Pretty flat and smooth. 4-5" diameter
Bruising: None observed
Spore print: White
Species 3:


Habitat: dead wood
Gills: brown. Smells really nice, very "woody"
Stem: short, curled. green toward the cap, mostly white, turned brownish on handling
Cap: Red in the middle, then turns yellow, then a little green on the outer edge. Smooth but looks like it had some small wrinkles, probably from aging? Curved, the edge is mostly vertical.
Bruising: None observed.
Spore print: feint, rust
Species 4:



Habitat: Dead wood
Gills: Milky White. Bruised yellow and upon scraping lightly there was a bright yellow liquid that came out of the gills. Stem: Short, offwhite, smooth. Firm. Solid color over the whole thing.
Cap: Smooth. Light brown
Bruising: Bruises yellow
Spore print: Hardly left any at all, quite hard to see if i had to give a color i would say light reddish
Species 5:



Habitat: Near dead wood
Gills: White, looks yellow toward the outer edge. Doesnt look like they connect to the stem.
Cap: Smooth brown with a darker "nipple" in the center and a slightly darker ring toward the outside. Also slightly wavy on some of the very outer edge.
Stem: Slender and long. Mostly green, it turns white as it gets close to the cap.
Bruising: none observed
Species 6: (my best guess is some kind of amanita) First sighting:


Came back the next day to this:



Habitat: Growing out of the dirt near pine trees
Gills: White. Many of them close to each other. Flat when looked at from the side.
Cap: Yellow. Very smooth. Has white spots all over it. In some parts toward the middle it is a slightly darker yellow than the rest, but I wouldn't say that theres any orange or red. Pretty big, 4-5" diameter.
Stem: White. Very thick at the bottom. Started to turn brownish after handling. Looks like theres a bunch of different "layers" of flesh on the stem. Quite firm.
Bruising: Stem turned brown after handling.
Spore print: White
Thanks for any information!

1) Maybe Entoloma but more likely to be old dried out Pluteus cervinus 2) Looks like Tricholoma but probably actually Russula 3) Hypholoma fasciculare 4) http://www.mushroomexpert.com/lactarius.html 5) http://www.google.com/search?q=Nolanea 6) Amanita. Maybe A. amerimuscaria, but if its turning reddish then maybe one of the rubescent ones? The first two look like A. amerimuscaria, are they the same as the others?

All the pics are of the same mushroom. It doesnt really have any reddish coloring but the yellow seems more intense in some spots toward the center of the cap (if that makes any sense).
Edit: I just realized that you're referring to the stem. There was only a small piece of the stem that turned light brown where i touched it. I wasnt trying to get it to bruise, it may have been from dirty fingers or exposure to air... I tried to get it to bruise again in other spots but it would not bruise at all. You might notice in the pic with the full stem view that it is slightly darker near my fingers where i am holding it. This is the brown i am referring to.
