Hello, New member, It's been a while since I've done this. Walked past a patch and thought.. why not? Found two bad guys straight up, rusty brown spore print and Annulas I missed when picked, at that point I realised this isn't like riding a bike, I'm second guessing myself on everything and would appreciate some assistance. Are the others Psilocybe subaeruginosa or am I in the wrong creek without a boat?
The two types of mushroom where not growing together. I have included a photo of the rusty brown spore print still in ground, and photos of the other patch. I have also a larger selection waiting on spore prints now. They don't seem to be bruising blue like I remember. It has rained straight for 3 days and everything is waterlogged.
I am unsure the order photos will go in (this photo system is a nightmare when using a phone to post and phone reception is only available about 500m away up a hill on which rain is currently falling) I will switch this up with an edit if needed.
1: I believe is bad guys 2: good guys? 3: good guys at home? 4: big good guy at home? 5: first lazy spore print, second from right is bad guy, other three good guys maybe? 6: laying on paper, I see two that are no good I think. 7: in a container.

Habitat: About 100m into temperate rainforest, growing in leaf litter and decomposing wood. Running along the bank of tiny creek surrounded by man ferns. Nw Tasmania
Gills: Closish, creamy brown to dark brown maybe greyish. Black stringy bits? (I feel I need a mushroom to english phrase book)
Stem: Hollow, white/browny, all between 5 - 10cm
Cap: Light Brown to caramel yellow. Do not all have distinct umbo. Most had irregular black colouring (stringy bits) around the rim of the cap
Spore print colour: Dark brown/blackish.
Bruising: Can see light brushing, metallic bluey colour after sitting for 6 hours. Maybe. I may be pretending it's there.
Other information: Have picked a second lot from the patch and doing proper spore prints
Thanks in advance, Trouserpants! (I'm pretty stoked that sort of rhymed)

Your assessment is correct. The mushrooms with a darker cap, rusty brown spore print, and an annulus on the stem are a Galerina species. The others are Psilocybe subaeruginosa.

Looks like you have two bad guys in your container. Top right, orange caps.
The black ‘stringy bits’ are remnant veil and is a good tell tale sign for subs.

Excellent thankyou very much. Does it matter they are not bruising blue much?
Also love your display pic, I stumbled across a whole log of mycena interrupta about a week back, would have been 80 +. They are such a striking colour.

Haha bad guys thank you. Strangely enough it was the bad guys I noticed first and went to pick, thinking they where good guys, then stumbled across the good guys.
I have left anything with the veil still attached fully, I understand they are still maturing at this stage yeah? I'm going to keep calling them stringy bits for now.

Sometimes they don't bruise much, especially if they're a little water logged. I can see some blue bruising through.
Mycena interrupta are amazing. Definitely one of my favourite mushrooms.
