ID: Possible chanterelle's and field or horse Mushrooms

Hi all,

I was out looking for liberty caps today in Scotland in a field where sheep graze and found a lot of Mushrooms that look really like chanterelle's although the only thing puzzling me is that there were no trees around, they were growing out of moss and around blaeberries so I know this is a good habitat for then with the exception of the lack of trees. The stems seem hollow too. Here's the pictures :














I also found a number of possible field or horse Mushrooms but unfortunately they have broken up a bit in the bag, really need to get myself a wicker basket!

Here's the pics :









Any help would be appreciated guys.

The white caps are possibly field mushrooms. The browner ones could be a few things. Notes on smell and colour changes might help. They will be edible.

The chants are false chants, Hygrophorpsis aurantiaca.

Thanks for the input. All the field ones smell like button Mushrooms. There are ones with pink gills and browny caps and others have white caps and brown gills. The ones with the link gills have darkened slightly since picking.

The ones with pink gills are just less mature. As they mature their gills darken to brown. They are all a species of Agaricus.

Would you say they are safe for the munching then?

Providing there is no yellow bruising and when cooked they continue to smell good, they are probably edible. Try a small amount of the 2 different kinds and see how you get on. Since it's very difficult to identify Agaricus mushrooms to species it is in your best interest to familiarise yourself with the ones that are poisonous and learn to be able to identify them from all the others. If you can't find out for sure what they are, then at least you will be sure what they are not (the poisonous ones).

Edit: Oops Joie beat me to it.

Yes I was aware of a possible miss ID with the yellow stainer but there doesn't seem to be any yellow staining.
