A few finds after the recent rain

Here are some fungi I found today.
This lawn always has lots of conocybe sp.



I found these growing in iceplant in an abandoned lot:



These were growing in the same area. If you look closely at the third pic of this species, the green in the background is actually dog shit.



Also nearby, but on decaying wood from Eucalyptus trees:




So I'm guessing the last one may be pluteus sp.? I love the rain

The first ones are a coprinoid species, not Conocybe. The last ones aren't Pluteus, but most likely Lepista. From the looks of them Lepista nuda, but since I don't know where you are located I can't really tell if they actually grow there. EDIT: I can't tell you what No2 are, but No3 look like an Amanita. The pics are overexposed, unfortunately, so it's a bit hard to tell.

I think #3 may be a Volvariella species.

#1, 2 Coprinopsis sp.
#3 This looks like a different species, likely Coprinopsis atramentaria
#4 Volvariella gloiocephala
#5, 6 Melanoleuca sp.
#7, 8, 9 More V. gloiocephala
#10, 11, 12, 13 Clitocybe nuda

I collected spores from the third specimen in the first set of pics. I doubt it's c. atramentaria only because the spores were orange/rust colored. The flimsiness of the stipe also makes me think conocybe. I'm looking for the print and I think I took a few pics of the specimens I collected.

I think maybe you got the spore print confused with a different mushroom... for a few reasons. 1, the mushrooms pictured in the 3rd photo are far too dried out and old to make a spore print. 2, you can see black gills in the photo. 3, the drab brown, pleated cap is right on for C. atramentaria, but not seen in the genus Conocybe.

I apologize for not making it clear - I collected samples on a prior visit. I found the pic I was looking for.

Those are Bolbitius vitellinus.
