sweet Boletus parasiticus, they grow right out of scleroderma. Indian pipes or ghost pipes are ecto-heterotrphs meaning they draw their energy from mushrooms that are mycorrhizal so you many times you find them alongside fungi like boletes amanitas and I think russulas (they act as parasites on the fungi).

The Amanita is "Sp. s01" Look it up. The cuff-roll of tissue at the base is key. Idk what that bolete is. Pretty cool tho! Print #4! 7 is definitely Vaginatae.

TY guys!!! I found amanitas near the ghost pipes. the only other ones I found were growing off dead trees with black or white gills. I love monotrope uniflora! Its the most unique parasite Ive ever seen. I didnt know it was parasitic until you guys identified it for me and I began researching it on the internet! I will look the amanita sp up hashfinger. domesticgnome I will look all those up and compare much appreciated As will I look up the one you ided byrain

I went back out today and found some huge amanitas for around here anyway. I also found some new to me mushrooms and have a few good questions for you guys too. I will put them at the end as separate comments. Im going to start off with the amanitas if you would please let me know if ANY of them look suspicious. TY in advance here we go! 1. Amanitas









 These are Iffy. I got to this spot for the first time too late They are paler and some a bit mushy underneath. still edible? The large ones of this shade had puddles of goo in the centers.
















 2, unknown growing in grass nearby pine trees.




 3. unknown found growing by the creek.

My questions can be many so I will try to be easy on you guys since Im working you so hard lately lol. 1. when drying is it best to cut them in 1/4s, 1/8ths or not at all? 2. Is it better to air dry with fan compared to in oven on lowest setting? I heard it lessens potency in oven. 3. If I find older looking caps that still look fairly descent is it a harm to add with the rest of the bunch? refer to iffy amanitas above. 4. are the stems of amanita of any use in possible consumption note: I dont plan on eating just preserving in case someday.... 5. are the gills ok to leave intact. kinda dumb question but I heard the skin of amanitas is where the active chemicals. I also heard a myth that stems contain strictnine. 6. is there a prefered direction cap facing up/down to dry them in? should the be flipped now and again?

2. Melanoleuca 3. Looks like Coprinellus flocculosus Another resource.
You're not getting on my nerves, feel free to post as many pictures as you wish, just understand that the more work you put into making it easier for us the better our ids will be.  And I will leave your questions for someone with more experience with consuming Amanita, they just make me sick...
Edit: Also, i hope that toothbrush and water in the pictures doesn't mean you are cleaning the mushrooms before you take pictures of them? Its best to not clean any mushrooms you have not identified yet to preserve important features which may be fragile like the universal veil Amanita species have.

Not sure if you fully understand so let me try to explain, you didn't find Amanita vaginata which is an European species, but you did find an Amanita in section Vaginatae which is a large and difficult section which includes A. vaginata and many other species.
Here is some info on the different Amanita sections. http://www.amanitaceae.org/?Sections+of+Amanita
