Hello, I was collecting some chanterelles and libs today and picked up some other mushrooms. Was hoping to find out what they are and if they are good eating? Thanks

"Habitat: Where does it grow? Eg. woods, pasture, state, province, country, altitude, etc. What does it grow on? Eg. soil, dung, wood (dead, living, what kind of wood?), etc.
Gills: Color, attached/not, gills/pores, etc.
Stem: Length, diameter, color, texture, hollow/solid, thin/thick, etc.
Cap: Diameter, color, texture, conical/spherical, convex/concave, etc.
Spore print color: Very important!
Bruising: Color that the mushroom bruises, if any.
Other information: Scent of the mushroom, anything else you think is important, large close-up pictures showing stem, cap and gills."
More information would be really helpful. I think they might be a Tricholoma species maybe. They could be a lot of things. What were they growing on/under?

my first guess looking at the gills if you found them on wood I would say Pluteus. if found groing terrestreal i;d say Entoloma or Tricholoma of some sort. I would not eat them.

They were in the same habitat as the chanterelles, the biggest one there is about 5 inch diameter

Also if those are your chanterelles in the second pic, they look suspiciously like Hygrophoropsis aurantiaca to me in that photo.

Could just be the photo though. 
Good point.

Its kind of hard to tell with those great pics. I detect a slight pinkish hue to the gills. but that just culd be lighting. But im pretty sure at this point there brown mushroom. Don't you agree.

Tell what? The gills definitely aren't free, no way it's a Pluteus.

I think it's just the lighting.

If I had to call them somthing I'd call them Clitocybe, but honestly I'm not sure.

I think Melanoleuca could be a candidate.

Thanks for help people. The gills are white, no pink, sorry about pic quality, that is the best camera I have at the moment. The chanterelles are definitely ok, you just can't see them well there.
