Some GA Identifications Please!

#4795960 - 10/12/05 10:50 PM (18 years, 6 months ago)

I am new to mushroom picking, and after it rained yesterday, I went looking in my yard and came upon three types of mushrooms and I need some help with the identification.

Type 1

Habitat: Little North of Atlanta GA. Growing in lawn
Gills: Yellow, pores, attached
Stem: Yellow/White. Solid
Cap: Spherical, somewhat asymetrical, Orange, Smooth, diameter varies
Spore Print: White
Bruise: Cap bruises blue/black, Stem bruises blackish
Not really a distinct scent, smells like a shitaki mushroom :smile:

When I pulled the cap off the stem, the top of the stem was blueish if that helps

Type 2

Habitat: Little North of Atlanta GA. Growing in lawn
Gills: Light tan/White; attached gills
Stem: Thin, smooth, hollow, white
Cap: Small, 1 conical, 1 flat/round; smooth, Darker tan color
Spore Print: Brownish/blue
Bruise: Black/Dark Brown
Kind of sharp scent (smells similar to some dried cubenis that ive had before)

Type 3

Habitat: Little North of Atlanta GA. Growing in lawn
Gills: Light tan/White; attached gills
Stem: Thin, smooth, hollow, white
Cap: Small, high/conical, lighter color in center, darker outwards
Spore Print: Black/blue
Bruise: brown
Little to no scent

the first is a bolete of the sort that shouldn't be eaten, I'm not sure of the exact species...

as for the others, I'm not sure, maybe psathyrella for the last. someone more familiar with your area might have some better guesses for you.
