ID request of 3 species. Possible Galerina!!

I do not believe any of these to be active, but would still like to know some sort of clasification. I believe species #2 to be Galerina.
Species 1:
Habitat: Where does it grow? Growing from a well decayed log. My habitat pic is fuzzy. I am unsure of species of wood. If i had to guess I would say Pine.
Gills:light yellow... Every other gill is attached to the stem. "Alternating"
Stem:Approx 1.5 to 2 Inches... most of the colony was much smaller however. breaks apart easily, I cannot tell for sure, but seems to be hollow. Cap: Approx 1 inch, velvet-like, yellow/orange color, convex maturing to slightly wavy,
Spore print color: In process. First go around produced nothing.
Bruising: none
   
Species #2
Habitat: Where does it grow? Growing from forest floor detritus. Deciduous, nothing prominent. Various flora.
Gills: white, not attached
Stem: Approx 2 to 3 Inches. Hollow. Annulus present. Cap: Approx 1 inch, Slimy when wet, most likely waxy when dry. Hyrgophanus. Convex with a very slight umbo.
Spore print color: In process.
Bruising: Slight brown bruising on the stem.
Grew solitary, no cluster. If surrounding species were the same, cap matures to planar then to depressed at maturity.
  
species #3
Habitat: Where does it grow? Grew from a maintained business lawn.
Gills: greyish, not attached>> about 1/4 inch off the stipe.
Stem: Approx 6 Inches. Hollow. Annulus present. Volva at bottom heavily attached to the dirt. Rubbing away the dirt showed more of a mycelial volva than an actual smooth basal bulb. Cap: Approx 4 inch, Scaly, convex, I would bet matures to planar. Young reminded me of shaggy mane somewhat, but much smaller and more of a stretched stem.
Spore print color: In process.
Bruising: none
I would have passed this off an an amanita, however there are no trees around. Also volva doesnt resemble a bulb-like structure much. My literature reads that Amanita species need trees around within 30 feet and this is not the case with this mushroom, I mean NO TREES! I stopped to pick the young thinking they were shaggy manes. Then this more mature/larger one caught my eye, as i noticed the young looked quite a bit off.
  
Sorry for such a long post of inactives. I am mainly inquiring about species #2, the others were some I was having trouble with.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Not sure about the first two, but the third is definitely Chlorophyllum molybdites.
Also, it would be a very good idea to post what geographical location you found these in. As well as pics of #2 in its habitat.
Remember, you are essentially asking a TI to do you a favor, so it helps to make the favor as easy as possible.

I agree with Midnightcity for #1 being Tricholomopsis decora, I think #3 is Chlorophyllum rhacodes.
#2, I don't know.

If the spores are green then it is Chlorophyllum molybdites

Yes I agree, I just don't feel like this could definitely be called green gills or shaggy parasol without seeing spore color. I think at this stage in the specimens maturity you would see some greenish tint to the gills, that is why I said shaggy parasol.

I can see how you might suppose they could be something else, but they are a very common species in the south and now is when they fruit abundantly. You seldom see a patch of grass without at least a few. Very rarely do any of the other Chlorophyllum species turn up.

Yes I am in Georgia. In regards to species 3, I would have keyed it out to Chlorophylum, but it didn't bruise redish or pink when sliced as my books states.. This is what led me back to possible Amanita  Now I see mushroomobserver says it may not stain when sliced. We are in agreement ... I'm just not having much luck keying out to family which should be easier 
I finally got a spore print for species one after rehydrating. It is white with yellow on the outer rim which is probably cap remnants. So yes we are in agreement for that species as well for Tricholomopsis decora ... Still was not able to key it out for some reason.
As for species #2 there were other mushrooms that may be the more mature specimens at the same site and I was able to get a habitat shot, but if these more mature specimens are in fact the same mushroom, then the true habitat is extremely various as stated earlier, especially since I see them everywhere right now.
I will post habitat later, I need to get batteries for the camera in order to do this 
Thanks for the ID's. Rep
