Those actually look nothing like Coprinus micaceus to me... but I've never seen them in person and I really don't know much about them at all... [url=http://www.mykoweb.com/CAF/species/Coprinus_micaceus.html] thats Coprinus Micaceus. I've got the same thing in my lawn though, I've seen them near tree stumps and stuff.
What was the one you said (sorry, I'm almost totally unfamiliar with nomenclature) "coprinus sp."? Could you give me a full name maybe? I like researching them.

"coprinus sp." = a species of the genus Coprinus. I agree that they are Coprinus. I don't know which species.
