Active?

The following Pan species were all found in a grassy paddock which once housed sheep but now houses 6 goats. I believe I have several species here and would like to know if any are active.... Tasmania, Australia.
Most growing solitary though within arms reach of each other. On ocassion there will maybe be two or three in a little group. All have long stems and hide within the tall grass so generally only the cap is visible - color of stem ranges from off-white, light to dark brown and some appear to almost be a reddish-brown. After being picked the colors darken further. Caps range from an almost creamy-tan sort of color to dark brown and some go from dark brown to light brown towards the edges of the cap.
I believe I may have some of the following from the 30 minutes of research I've done into Panaelus species:
NOTE: I am unable to say if any were growing from dung - the entire paddock has old sheep & cow dung, goat dung and also kangaroo, wallaby, possum and rabbit dung - but the stems go so far into the thivk grass I could never see what the substrate was.... they are all easy to pluck out without damaging and often have white tips on the stems (mycelium?) - no apparent blue bruising though stems are turning darker as they dry.
Pan cyan Pan olivaceus Pan acuminatus Pan paps Pan foes Pan cincts Pan antilarum
There are also ones which look just like liberty caps (libs grow in same area and often will be close to the pans) only with a darker and more slender stem.
I have no idea what to think so you people be the judge(s)

you definitely have Psilocybe semilanceata amongst those they are easy to pick
but to be honest while i know the common Panaeolus sp., i dont know the active ones you are seeking. i personally would have called your collection, apart from the Psilocybe, Panaeolina foenisecii, Panaeolus papilionaceus, and Panaeolus sphinctrinus.
but i know from other peoples reports that actives from this grouping have been found in Tas, so i an definitely open to them boing something else. its just a family im not overly familiar with.

Paps is my best guess but a TI will come to save the day.
