Orlando Florida Finds in backyard

I found these in my backyard today while shooting at some cans with my pellet gun. The spore print is pending but the habitat is a central florida backyard in the grass. Cap is brown and pretty small maybe like 5 cm tops. The stem is really skinny and no signs of blueing.

Those will require a spore print for ID. I can tell you they are not active.

Alright, the cap has only been on the paper for like 15 minutes so I will post the print in about an hour or so.

Give it at least 4 hours. For a darker print 10 to 12 hours.

Ok I had to take the spore print with a camera phone but I will tell you that the spore print is a pretty distinctive orange though it looks blurry in the picture.

Those look familiar? I'd say they're some type of Marasimus. Not active, not worth eating.
If they're not Marasimus, they probably belong to some other obscure genus of mushrooms that grows from soil. I don't have my book handy right now. Either way, they're not active and you shouldn't eat them.
You sure that print is orange and not more of a cream/buff color?
By the way, the backyard is no place to hunt for actives.
