Why do you think this? Using http://www.mushroomexpert.com/psathyrella.html I can not see much similarity between the mushrooms I have collected and any of the species listed from the genus Psathyrella apart from Parasola conopilus.

http://www.mushroomexpert.com/parasola_conopilus.html

"Stem: 6-19 cm long; up to 5 mm thick; equal; fragile; hollow; bald or very finely silky; white; without a ring."

The stems I have are approximately 4 to 6 cm long, up to 3mm thick and hollow. The gills are all brown and there is a distinct discolouration at the tip of the stems. However, Liberty Caps also have hollow stems.

I suspect these aren`t the mushrooms I`m looking for but am loath to accept it.

Psathyrella often have fragile pale stems and brown to buff caps and medium-close gills that are narrow, attached or free, and run up along the closed cap, they are the sort of thing that grows everywhere in clumps, stuff like this is why it seems clear you have Psathyrella. Kuo's list has a few US species. Maybe a habitat shot would help me to say what species but anyway.
