Help Identifying Mushrooms

I am thinking that the yellowish one may be a young ps. cube, and maybe the smaller ones are liberty caps. If so I found about 50 Liberty Caps (the most common where I was in number), and two Ps. Cubes. I just need verification so I know what I'm finding. Thanks to everyone who takes the time to even look.

Pic 2 is Panaeolus papilionaceus. The others are too blurry to id.

Pictures like this,

are difficult to ID. As you can see the background is in perfect focus and the mushroom is blurry.
Use the on your camera. A clear picture from further away is better than a blurry one.
That being said. The second bunch looks like it could be a mildly active Panaeolus. Perhaps P. cinctulus.

Wrong cap shape for Panaeolus cinctulus. These are more mycenoid.

It's really hard to tell anything with the blurry pictures but I can safely say that I'm sure neither of those are what you think they are.
Are your suspected cubes growing from wood in a cluster? It's really hard to tell with your photo. They should be growing from manure.
Your suspected semilanceata look like a random Panaeolus. But once again its hard to tell because they appear to be in big rotting pile.
Edit: What Alan said above for sure.
Please take clear pictures of them both if you want a better identification. Also spore print them for extra measure.
For the record, I'm not sure there is anywhere in the world where cubes and libs grow together. They both inhabit opposite climates. Does anyone else know of a place where both are found?

In the Pacific North West P. semilanceata is found in grassy fields which have cattle grazing.
And P. cubensis grow in peoples closets. So there ya go. They both grow here.

Virginia. India. But I doubt populations really overlap in any of these places. Australia and India are pretty vast, it's a bit like saying America.

Alan,
Where is Australia Psilocybe cubensis and P. semilanceata grow together? I ask because from what I thought I knew, they grow thousands of kms apart, one in Tasmania and the others in northern NSW-Qld...

In the same locality? If so; Awesome.

Do we discount outdoor cultivation; because I've seen pictures in years past of ourdoor culture of cubensis within close proximity to semi fields.
Is that also cheating?

Nonsense, I can clearly identify that toilet paper in the first pic. It's obviously quilted, possibly of the Northern variety? Although I can't be absolutely sure without an ass-print.
EDIT: wait, no, that might be paper towels. My bad  Definitely try the macro function.

Fair enough. That's about what they told me at the human cloning research institute as well.
