Not 100% sure about any of them just yet. I'll see if they bruise blue, and probably put some better pictures up later.
I think you got some lookalikes.
Check the spore print color and lack of blue staining.

Not really, but sometimes Galerina marginata can appear to bruise blue to beginners.

There are a couple of lists around, but the guilty parties found are
Psilocybe subaeruginosa (This is the predominant psilocybe species)
Psilocybe semilaneata
hard to find:
Psilocybe Alutacea
Psilocybe Brunneoalbescens - inactive
Also possibly found in tas are: Psilocybe aucklandii, and Panaeolus subbalteatus
Of particular interest are the bluing species found in southern tasmania:
Inocybe (unnamed sp GM Gates) blue-green base to stipe
Pluteus (unnamed sp GM Gates) grey or brown with blueing stipe
A couple of points:
* Psilocybe cubensis does not occur in tasmania naturally, there are plenty of people who claim they are, but tasmania is way out of their climae range, likewise for Victoria and Southern NSW, so i find it odd.
* Psilocybe's "australiana", "tasmaniana", and "eucalypta", were all placed back within the subaeruginosa complex by Chang and Mills.
* Psilocybe semilanceata, has recently been found to have a much wider range than thought, recently having been found int he Huon Valley, around Mount Wellington, and a few other locations, not just Mount Field as previously reported by Guzman and Watling.
Cheers, Obtuse.

Feel free to ID as I am still learning the ropes!

Yep id concur with them being lookalikes. the bottom centre looks like a possibility, otherwise id say no to the lot.
Not aware of any dangerous blueing species that grow in tasmania. the blueing is a fairly good indicator, but also rely on proper identification of every specimen.
I noticed today a lot of lookalikes out this year, so a good year to be cautious i think.
[Edit:] Galerinas usually have an annulus on their stem, and their gills are dark yellow to a rusty brown colour, and sometimes have a flakey appeareance to their stems, but yes watch out for them, easily confused in a dark forest, or looking late in the day.
Cheers, Obtuse.

I found a Pan. cinct last year in a patch of subs. They're definitely about, but not too common or possibly just overlooked by a lot of people as they don't resemble the other types of actives we get down here.
Pretty sure I've still got the spore print from it somewhere...

Hello all, I haven't posted here yet so I thought I'd introduce myself to the thread. This will be my first season of proper hunting and I intend to succeed! Wherever those elusive fungi may be hiding.
I've been hunting a few times over the last three weeks but I haven't found the good stuff, just some beautiful inactives. I think the temperatures are still a bit too warm in the North end of Tassie here.
I hope you're all having a good season, I'll leave you with some of the wonderful specimens I've found over the last several days. Hopefully my next post will feature some subs!

Well, the autumn season is well and truly here, and the rain helped heaps. I went for a photo session somewhere in southern Tasmania and came across heaps of interesting stuff:
A dark brown, large bolete, with grey pores, strongly bruising blue:
A bright red bolete with yellow pores:
   
A bright purple Cortinarius, maybe C. archeri:
  
A yellow mushroom... Cortinarius? Tricholoma?
A weird thing... Anthrus?
Ramaria?
Ubiquitous Amanita muscaria, all over the pine plantations... if only they carried Lactarius deliciosus instead!
Macrolepiota:
 
And of course a few thousand Psilocybe subaeruginosa... They would have been among the 5 or 6 most abundant fungi I saw today!

Hi Bollo, nice pictures!
Not sure where you are up north, but I saw a few Psilocybe subaeruginosa near Weldborough going on three weeks ago, including lots of pins, so there should be heaps up there by now. Down here they're well and truly out.

1. Hydnum sp. - Just a guess.
2. Really not sure photo is too dark for ID purposes.
3&4. Both Mycena.
5-9. Xerula sp.
10. Macrolepiota clelandii.
Really nice shots.

@tas75
Amazing shots, your ID's look good to me for the most part.
Your Boletus looks like Boletus barragenis.
Yellow mushroom looks to be a Cortinarius hard to tell with just that shot though.
"weird thing" is a Phallaceae, perhaps Aseroe, I am not very good with these.
Really nice photos and interesting finds.

Hey, thanks for the info! I got a couple of other tip offs as well so it looks like I'll have to plan a weekend road trip soon. 
I really like your photos! Excellent photography and really interesting fungi.

"Weird Thing" is the ubiquitous Aseroe rubra. You'll find all over at this time of the year. There was an article in the Mercury only last week about them.
Wikipedia entry for Aseroe rubra
Nice photos Tas75.
cheers.

Went out hiking yesterday. Fungi everywhere. The season well and truly kicked in over the last week.
took a while, but better late than never.
Additionall heaps of different species occurring in areas where i go walking. But didnt get to the P. semilanceata spot, to see if there were any there. Ah well, next time.
Did find Mycena interrupta:
And lots of P. subaeruginosa. Heaps of them, lots of pins and lots of adults, not to mention quite a few old water logged examples.
a few pics:
     
Cheers, Ob.
