Habitat:
I found only one and it was growing in grass ranging from 5 to 7 inches tall.

Veil: It had a white veil that covered part of the gills and felt almost like cobweb

Gills:
Hot pink, evenly spaced, close together

Stem:
Dry, 3 Inches long, it appeared to be attached to the cap only the slightest bit from the center. It has a bulge that is towards the center(noticeable in picture). It is pretty thick and strong as well

Cap:
Dry, Conical in shape, a very light brown(light cream?) almost white color. It also seemed to curve inwards toward the gills, But i was not aware if this was due to the veil. Looks fibrous

Spore print color:
Waiting for it

Bruising:
None I have noticed thusfar

Other information:
It smells earthy, like most mushrooms do.

Spore print should be blackish-brown. Choice edible; very similar to the mushrooms that are sold in grocery stores, but with a nuttier flavor.

Take a walk around some fields tomorrow. They might be plentifully fruiting in your area, and you can collect more.

I'm 99% sure on my identification, but wait for a TI before you eat it.

I was going to argue with you, but I looked up pictures of Agaricus campestris and I can't really.

Make sure that it doesn't smell like chemicals/ink.  That is the best way to see if Agaricus is edible.

Scratch that, I see now that you mean trusted identifier

Basically the "Trusted Identifier" tag--colloquially referred to as "TI"--appears under the avatar of highly qualified people on this forum. Note its presence under Mr. Rockefeller's avatar.  Their identifications can be trusted to be correct.

It's great to have TI's, but the rest of us don't just sit on our hands and wait for them to do all the identifying! People like me have some level of experience, enjoy trying to ID mushrooms, and do our best to do so. I like to think that it assists the TI's to have another point of view (but I could be wrong).

If you're just posting for fun or you're trying to practice your photography, it doesn't really matter. On the other hand, if you're going to eat them, that's a different story: wait for a TI.

The list of TI's, and a great deal of other useful information, can be found at the following link:
