I found these just a couple min ago and am wondering what they are. My gut tells me they're worthless but since there where so many of them I'd kick myself if I later found out they were good. As I said I picked these literally 5 min ago so Spore prints and pics are forthcoming
Also its my first time getting any ID on this forum, so I figured it would help build my skills (any constructive criticism welcome)
Habitat: Growing in about a 50/50 moss grass mix less than 2 feet from the line where the yard ends and an old growth forest begins (200 plus year old redwoods and cedars) on an island in Washington state.
Habit: Growing in small groups (3 to 4 in a cluster) and separately (but all within a 3 x 3 area)
Gills: ranging from a slightly tan off white, to tan, to brown (the largest where black but they had started to fall apart) evenly spaced running from edge of cap to stem
Stem: white and hollow with a slight tendency (when handled roughly) to banana peel outwards
Cap: Ranging from light tan carmel with a nipple on top that tens to always be carmel (usually darker than the rest of the mushroom) smallest was slightly less than half an inch largest (was starting to rot) was about 1 inch 3/4 and was "wavy" smaller specimens are all circular some starting to turn upwards (as if to form a saucer shape)
Print: Forthcoming
Bruising: none noticeable
Scent: faint. Mushroom like, and a Slight smell of sweetness (like slightly burnt honey) which I have noticed with dried Cubes and Cyans
Thanks curious to find out what was growing there even thoug its probably nothing

The stems don't look like Panaeolus.... Perhaps they are Psathyrella, but I am not familiar with Psathyrella, so I cannot say for sure.

"your in ground zero for actives "
Actually the island I'm on has 29 know and identifed species of actives and during the fall has some really great hunting
I have costal redwood red and incense cedar... there is also an abundance of douglass fir and alders. I did not find the mushrooms amoung any of these but about three feet from the border of the wood in fairley (within a week) freshley mowed grass and moss mixture
