I'd guess Agrocybe but I doubt it's right.

Not even close.

Were there any trees nearby? Maybe they are Tricholoma, not really sure. Looks like the spore print will be white.

Sorry, fucked up on the reply to. I was talking to the OP. Agrocybe is a better guess than Gymnopilus, though the gills are too white.

they at least need to be in the orange/yellow/(reddish for g. luteofolius) color range! but dont just search mulch piles, Gyms are found on down hardwoods or even bases of hardwoods growing from the root system.

this should give you a better idea on what they gyms in general look like:

If it's not bitter, it's not a Gymnopilus.
