Attn PWN hunters: If you should come across a bluing Psilocybe matching P. pellicolusa please smell it.
If you detect a scent reminiscent of Anethole (anise) please preserve a specimen or two for study and please PM me.

1 is probably a Marasmius species.

I believe #3 is Marasmius oreades.

The other two Im not too sure about.
