Mushroom id please

So, I went out lib hunting today, only found 3, decided it was a lost cause but on my way home found a patch. Gradually ended up picking my way back into the center of the field lol. Picked some of the nasty ones for ID purposes to know what dangers lurk when mushroom picking. So here's my Lib catch. Let me know if there's something that doesn't belong there
 Maggot on a mushroom And now to my most interesting find of the day. They look very similar to libs but have white gills, and one also looks like it has bruising. What do you guys think?


 And now for some of the nasty looking ones. there were lots of these pointed brown ones

 And these things were everywhere
 Came across this dangerous looking sticky, slimey white mushroom with white gills and a nipple

 And a few more of some mushrooms




 These were all found in the same sheep field. Let me know is there's any nasty toxin containing mushies and is there a danger of cross contamination after touching them. Cheers for reading

I think your first 3 paler also look like libs, it doesn't appear white but pale brown which can happen in younger specimens, also because they appear to have blue bruising on the cap, but I'm no lib expert for sure, so you should wait for a TI.
Your #11 and #12 look like Protostropharia semiglobata, which is not active.

Really need to seperate different mushrooms One of these things is not like the other.... I could be wrong but seems to have a mix of pans, conocybes, and blurry pictures of what could be liberty caps
Have you done any spore prints? Good way to sort out things you don't want

Well the 1st 4 pictures I'm pretty sure are liberty caps. The next 4 maybe a species of mycena, they cant be liberty caps as they're gills are white but do seem to resemble them closely, even what appears to be bruising on the large one. the rest are separated out and grouped into what seems to be the same species. Wanting to know if anything deadly is growing amongst the libs Quote:

Which one? taking a couple of spore prints of the libs and the white gilled imposters. x

Never managed to get a decent spore print of the Libs, and I have terrible lighting to take pics. Gave up my decent camera when I upgraded my phone for and iphone...cameras crap on it :P The spores on the white gilled look-a-likes are creamy, slightly orange. Also, can't believe how many maggots have crawled out the Libs! That's the last time I eat them fresh! wonder if the maggots are psychoactive off munching on the mushies lol
