New member! Semi-experienced based on minimal research, intuition and friend's guidance (bad, i know). Finally now getting into professional identification and spore printing and thought I would test my knowledge here. All except last pic I think are subs. Last one may be galerina - picked on purpose (bad, i know) to compare spore print color and understand what 'rusty' really looks like. Your help is greatly appreciated! Melbourne, Victoria.

#6 Galerina?

Stem: - length 4.5cm, width 0.6cm - hollow (thin hole) - white/tan/orange? - rough, peely looking
Cap: - diameter 4cm - dark golden but more rusty - rough looking, a bit flaky - flat, kind of nipple-like (edge convex, then concave, convex center point) but with less pointy
Spore print color: rusty, orange, red, A LOT of spores (i did this test because i thought the other/subs(?) prints were red toned. But if THIS is red, the subs are definitely maroon/chocolate brown)
Bruising: Didn't touch it enough soz
Other information: Cleaning chemicals! Strong, stingy! Sneeze-inducing. Very different to the others.
