Dominican Republic Help identifying some of these mushrooms

Hi, I am new to this forum.
Hello Shroomers!
I had shrooms before on various occasions. Just never consumed anything that I "hunted" myself.
I live in the dominican republic and there is just farms, horses and cows around. And right now there is a lot of white caps & others popping out of the horse manure.
I have taken some photos and would like to get some help from you experienced guys in identifying what I have here. I know that I comply fully with the ID'ing request rules. If you guys could have a brief look and let me know what would be worth digging into deeper, I will do so.
thank you.
If you guide me towards what would possibly be worth identifying I will go further in providing the following:
Habitat: Where does it grow? Eg. woods, pasture, state, province, country, altitude, etc. What does it grow on? Eg. soil, dung, wood (dead, living, what kind of wood?), etc.
Gills: Color, attached/not, gills/pores, etc.
Stem: Length, diameter, color, texture, hollow/solid, thin/thick, etc.
Cap: Diameter, color, texture, conical/spherical, convex/concave, etc.
Spore print color: Very important!
Bruising: Color that the mushroom bruises, if any.
Other information: Scent of the mushroom, anything else you think is important, large close-up pictures showing stem, cap and gills.
please bare with me, photos are on their way.

Spore print is vital to get any further information... Consider bruising color if at all and most importantly photos do help tremendously

Thise large white ones are Agaricus species. I can't see enough of the others to say what they are.

Thanks guys! I am working on more photos.
I have cut the stems and took photos with a tape emassure next to them.
Also I am working on my first spore print ever. They are on a sheet of paper in the fridge.
I am new to this and thankful for any hints and suggestions.
Is there a way to upload more than just one photo at a time?

When doing a spore print im not sure if being in the fridge will help or not ...but I usually put mine at room temperature with a glass on top of the cap with minimal wind interference.

I agree with Agaricus for the big ones, and the little ones with the white gills looks like Leucocoprinus species.
The two partially hidden ones in pic 3 look interesting though - looks like an active Panaeolus species. Do you have any more pics of these?

sorry for not showing some of them properly or not the other side. I will correct that. But I can only upload one photo at a time with the phone. It takes forever.

First two pictures in your recent request is an Agaricus species, I'm guessing A. abruptibulbus or something close (due to the bulbuous stem base).
3rd picture looks like a Panaeolus species, is that blue bruising I see on the stem? Better pictures of these would help.
4th picture looks like either Coprinellus or Psathyrella.

Very interesting forum with a lot of great biologists! Thanks for helping me out here.
I just successfully did my first spore print. Do you guys have access to my photo folder named: dominican_republic_shroom_hunting ?

In my photos "Dominican_republic_shroom_hunting" you can find my "2 days in the fridge spore prints". What do you guys think?

 The top row are Panaeolus species. I'm pretty sure I see blue bruising which would indicate they are a psychoactive species. In any case they are not toxic, unless you consider psychoactivity a toxic reaction, which I presume you don't.
 Looks like Panaeolus species. Do they bruise blue? What were they growing on?

I found those in some horse dung. not super fresh one. the horse hasn't been here for 2 weeks. The climate is very humid these days. It rains every day, and a lot. Where they grow it is well covered from the sun, direct sunlight never gets there and it never gets dry there.
I think my 2-day spore print in the fridge went very well, what do the experts say? https://files.shroomery.org/files/19-50/627071069-IMG_20191213_160808.jpg
Is there a forum statistic of trusted identifiers identifying a psilocybin mushroom for someone, and those people never logging into the forum again? Looks like I am going to have a fun-weekend!
for the bruising, I will check tomorrow.

The blue bruising ones in the third shot are an active panaeolus species. Those are the only "good" ones. Find more like those!

 I can't tell what the one on the left is, but if it is a Panaeolus, it's not an active one because the spore print is brown.
The one in the middle could be an active Panaeolus, but it's hard to tell from the dried specimen. Which mushroom in your other photos does this one correspond to?

Thanks guys. I hope you were all right.
I am flying today. Economy only (15g fresh). Didn't want to go on an unprepared space mission just after breakfast. I thought a small handful of shrooms with the morning coffee would be all I need for a pleasant saturday. I am sitting in my seat, seat belt and no smoking signs are on and I am waiting for departure (40 minutes already). Probably I should eat the entire 50g that I have?

They work great. 15g is on the very low side though. I ate another 15g after 4 hours. I think I will be fine with an initial dose of 50g?
Just been walking around the house with my morning coffee again. Some have a slightly different color. But they bruce blue.
Does everything look OK in the photos from today?
