NO. 1:
  Habitat: On cow pasture directly on dung these are very young, but I picked them for id hoping they might be active. After some research I found that they are Coprinopsis cinerea, at least it looks like they are from internet pictures. Please confirm.
Gills: black/dark purple, not attached.
Stem: from 3 to 5 cm long, 2-3mm in diameter, white, hollow, thin.
Cap: Bell shaped, almost closed.
Spore print color: Black
Bruising: No bruising
NO. 2:
  Habitat: Found on horse pasture in grass.
Gills: grayish/purpleish, not attached.
Stem: 5 cm long, 5mm in diameter, white, hollow, thin.
Cap: Conical with light nipple on top, color fades from top to bottom from brown to light brown.
Spore print color: will post later
Bruising: No bruising

Are there any active Coprin-us/-opsis? I know of a couple of isolated reports but was unaware these had ever been verified. C.cinerea has a flared cap margin as it ages so unsure of pic no.1 as they are quite young as you have said. No.2 looks like another Coprinus but is difficult to tell for sure which kind. Sorry, couldn't be of more help.

I'm guessing Coprinopsis for number one and Coprinellus for 2. They aren't any active ones, no *awaits a reply proving him wrong*

For no 1 I must say are very fragile. I saw few mature ones there and I can say almost for sure that they are the ones. What you guys think, what it depends on for actives to grow on dung? Is it weather, climate? I saw so many different shrooms growing on dung, and Im wondering, since I'm mostly looking for actives, that maybe I'm missing some important conditions to be met to find some? I am plannig to go hunting for LC as soon as some rain falls, but thats another story that I'm aware of. I go out almost every day, finding different species, taking pics and studying them to know what grows around me and I like it. It's hard to find any info from my country about actives since there is no such great community like in other countries. I believe there are more active species growing here that we are just not aware of or are just very rare, mostly people buy them. Also I'm very fresh to mushroom hunting and need more time to get to know my country habitats, then I don't think it will be so hard. Thanks again for info, and I'm looking forward to new discoveries and knowledge, gathered here and on field. I got myself a great hobby.

The caps of these species liquify (deliquesce) in maturity. Neither are active. I think whether actives grow on dung or not depends as much on weather as non-dung species do.
