Melbourne, VIC ID request

Hi there Shroomery family. I went out in the bush today, going about some typical spots and came across this cluster of subs, growing with what 'might' be another type of psilocybe. I am not sure about these others growing with and next to the p.subs so I thought I'd ask the pros. I come across these every year but usually leave to ones growing around or out of poo alone but decided to get these identified to be sure.
Habitat: Where does it grow? Western Victoria, In the bush.
What does it grow on? Soil or possible Roo/Wombat dung around dead leaves, twigs, moss and fallen tree branches.
Gills: Look similar to P. Sub (See photos)
Stem: Thin and not too long. Length is about about 3-5 cm. (See Photos)
Cap: About 1 cm diameter.
Spore print color:

Bruising: Looks like blue brusing towards the base of stem.
Other information: Scent of the mushroom smells like P.subs or rain water.
The first (5) photos have the main ones in question. (Not the tiny blurry mushroom in the middle photo).

These last (2) seem to be p.subs but the ring and poo are throwing me off so id like another opinion on those just to be sure.

You definitely have some subs, and also possibly some alutacea. If so, double whammy! Nice find.
The subs are the thicker ones with the more triangular shaped caps.
The ones with the more semi-circle shaped caps COULD be alutacea. Im not familiair with alutacea, so wait for someone who does.

That is what I was thinking. Hopefully Ent or a trusted ID'er could confirm this and I can add the newbies to the list of confirmed finds for me in VIC. Thank you for the input.

Nice finds  First pic looks to be subs and alutacea mixed, the next four pics are definitely alutacea and the last two pics look to be subs. As OOISI said, the domed caps are alutacea. Also the blueing at the base of the stem is a giveaway with them. Spore print will tell subs from alutacea, the alutacea have more of a red colour to the purple brown of sub prints in my experience.
