I haven't figured out how to get totally focused up close with the camera I'm using. My future posts will contain spore prints and better pictures, but I was curious as to whether someone could ID by just using these pictures.

First specimen
Found growing on the ground in deciduous forest. Was amongst some leaves, but I brushed them away in some photos to get a better picture.










Second Specimen
Found growing in moss in deciduous forest, couldn't really see any stem on it and I didn't pluck it from the ground to examine the stem because it was the only one of it's kind I saw. Growing near it on the ground amongst leaves was specimen #3.












Third Specimen
Found growing on ground amongst some leaves in deciduous forest. This guy was growing near the second specimen. This also looks a bit like the first specimens, but this one has an extruding brown dimple on the cap in the middle and it has tears around the edges of the cap. Maybe it's the same as the first specimen, just older?








Fourth Specimen
Found growing in a mix of grass and pine needles. Has a shiny leathery looking cap, and the underside contains no gills, just a sponge-like material.

2 looks like a Scleroderma sp. and 4 is Suillus luteus. The blurriness is a big issue. Use the macro mode on your camera, which is usually a flower icon, and if it's a bog-standard point & shoot take the shot from about 2 feet away. You can experiment with distance.

Yes, sorry about that. I can't seem to find a macro mode on this camera (kodak m5370). Thanks for the ID, though

You're welcome. Looking at the manual I guess one way is Mode > Scene Modes > Close-up. Otherwise you may need to go into Scene Modes > Program mode and experiment with exposure and other options.

the only thing i can say for sure is no. 4 is suillus you can eat it if it doesnt have worms and if you dont mind its slimy a bit.

Thanks for confirmation. I've seen suillus luteus quite a bit and always wondered if they were poisonous.

The first is a Lycoperdon, possibly L. excipuliforme.
