I feel that they are not Gyms due to the thin waviness of the caps.. Gyms will have more meat about them and the caps usually wont turn up as far as that.. This is my opinion and it could be wrong but Gyms just have a look about them.. Oh ya and a smell about them.. I can tell a Gym by smell.. LOL

Smells faintly like a jar of mycellium, not a real strong smell.
Spore print is purple.

Wow purple thats cool.. Gym's have a bright Orange /Yellow spoor.. You will also see a fiburous stem on Gym's with some tinge of rust almost red strands in the mix..

Hmm, it seems to fit the profile of Hypholoma fasciculare. Strange to see a wavy cap though, I think I have seen a few with the caps like that. The rest of the pictures are kind of vague.. Did any of the others look like this?

There aren't many mushrooms at all that are bright yellow and have a purple brown print.. the sulfur tuft is one of them.

Agreed Hypholoma(naematoloma) fasciculare......wavy is common at times but the yellow color is not always present and can be quite plain...thats just on the close ups..
Though considered edible in some localities they have accounted for several deaths in Europe.....who wants to risk that and the bitterness can be unbearable though this can be variable also..

i'm inclined to second H. fasciculare. They are a verry common lignicolous species, often fruiting from burried wood. These are toxic according to most sources.

Attn PWN hunters: If you should come across a bluing Psilocybe matching P. pellicolusa please smell it. If you detect a scent reminiscent of Anethole (anise) please preserve a specimen or two for study and please PM me.

I have seen H. fasciculare with wavy caps like that before, especially when it is dry. First time I saw them I thought they were gyms too, even tasted a tiny bit to test for bitterness. Then I saw the purplish gills and realized that H. fasciculare is horribly bitter as well. Nice pics though.
