ID Request - Multiple Species (Tasmania, Australia).

Habitat: All (besides one) were found throughout damp woods with dead debris from trees lying on the ground. (twigs, leaves, rotten logs etc.) Sunlight conditions were pretty standard for a forest, little to no direct sunlight. *Note that all shrooms were rinsed before taking photographs, hence the damp, shiny appearance.
I decided to avoid filling out dimensions, colours etc. of these shrooms because I believe the photos are self explanatory. If you request any further details to be sure, ask me and I will provide 
This is my first pick, hence the vast range of shrooms, and how unsure I am (better safe than sorry).
Species 1. (Possibly rotted Psilocybe Semilanceata?)

 I believe it is unlikely that this be a Psilocybe Semilanceata, due to the cap not curving inwards towards the stem, but the stripy, hydrophanous appearance also makes me think otherwise.
Species 2. (Psilocybe Subaeruginosa, old?)

 I'm led to believe this could possibly be Psilocybe Subaeruginosa, as the image DOES show a slight nipple on the cap (darkening towards the centre, slight lump in centre), and has been described to turn 'violet brown' with age.
Species 3. (no clue)

 I thought I may aswell post this one; just in case. I don't believe this is a magic shroom, but it can't hurt to ask.
Species 4. (Psilocybe Subaeruginosa variant?)

 Thought this may either be a variant of Psilocybe Subaeruginosa, or maybe just a younger version of the previous possible Psilocybe Subaeruginosa due to the much more vibrant colours.
Species 5. (Psilocybe Semilanceata?) *Note that this final shroom was found on my walk home, in a paddock which cows regularly graze.

 I'm highly confident that this is Psilocybe Semilanceata, but like I said, better safe than sorry. (Damn the amount of lookalikes throughout shroom species).
I would truly appreciate the identification of these shrooms, thankyou!

Sorry. none of those are active.
i understand why you would think Psilocybe semilanceata on that last one given the cap, but no looks like Deconica sp. to me

#4 grows right next to my subearuginosa patch, i'd look wherever you found that.

Thankyou for such a fast response. Sad news but hey, at least they haven't been consumed!

Ah interesting... I have literally kilometers of the same environment to search, so I'm in luck!

I also found this little baby, and another source told me this one was active, thoughts? Apologies for the lack of detail :/

Looks like an inactive young mushroom, the same species as #4

Thanks! I'll be likely to go for another pick tomorrow and see if I can find some actives, any tips for making Psilocybe Subaeruginosa stand out from the rest?

Your species four has alot of orange on the stem, subs will most of the time just be white, they also have (from the ones i've found) less gills, and darker gills, and of course will bruise blue.

Ah wonderful, thanks! I will certainly remember the blue bruising
