Beautiful mushrooms in the Pacific NW - ID request * 1
    #25558337 -

My yard started sprouting some beautiful mushrooms!  I'm humbly requesting some help ID-ing them.


Gorgeous, right?


Here's a guy who's been uprooted, you can sort of see the mycellium body but it's covered with crap.


Gills of the same mushroom (very juvenile so nothing really.  Sorry for the color saturation).


More advanced mushroom.


I didn't want to uproot this guy so this is the shot of the gills I have.


More cuties!


Other mushrooms growing in my yard (don't need an ID, these pics are just for fun)




And of course these guys that you see everywhere

Habitat:
In the Western part of Washington (Pacific Northwest in the US) a mile or so from the ocean.  These guys are growing in my front lawn underneath a Japanese maple.  There's some pine trees nearby and the ground cover has a fair bit of needles and cones and maple leaves.

Gills:
Dark black-ish gills, attached

Stem:
Couple-inch long white stems about the diameter of a sharpie, somewhat fuzzy (see pics), solid stems

Cap:
Golden shiny sort of conical caps

Spore print color:
Do not have a spore print yet :frown:

Bruising:
Bruised stems are like a little more yellowy than normal but no real bruising

Any help anyone has is appreciated!

I don't know where that nifty 'what he said' gif is... but I agree with Duggstar and can possibly get you a little closer too

1) highly likely to be ambiguous Stropharia (Stropharia ambigua) - they appear in large numbers every fall around here.

2) there are several local Sulius  that can look very much like yours - the two most likely seeming candidates are Suillus Caerulescens and Suillus Lakei, I think of the two Caerulescens is the more commonly seen.

3) tiny Galerinas are all over the place and there's probably a dozen species that look nearly exactly the same, at least macroscopically... so that one I strike out on, but agree that it looks like a Galerina


--------------------
Disclaimer - I'm just a hobbyist and cannot absolutely guarantee any ID offered. I'm most familiar with the species found in the Pacific Northwest - those found in other parts of the world may vary considerably, so always do your own research to find out what grows in your area and what lookalikes you need to be aware of. Understand that many mushroom species cannot be 100% reliably identified by photographs alone, even by an expert, so it may not be possible to go beyond suggesting a probable genus.

Ah, cool guys, thanks for the likely ID (and for the extra ID-ing on the other pics)! I've never lived up in the PNW during the fall until now so I'm pretty excited about these things.
