the two in the middle are almost certainly psilocybes. dependent on habitat and a few other features, they are probably P. semilanceata.
where they spore printed? confirm the spore color.
what habitat where they found in? be descriptive out of consideration for good practice.
when you attempt to bend the stipes, are they pliant? can you wrap them around, or most of the way around a finger? do they snap or break in the proccess?
assuming they have a purple brown spore deposite and a cap which is rubbery in texture and slimy when moist, i would safely call them a Psilocybe. if they also bruise blue or blue-green then they are an active Psilocybe. if they where growing from grasses and have a pliant stipe and had a purple brow spore print they are Psilocybe semilanceata. if they where growing from grasses, have a purple brown spore print and have a stipe which snaps or breaks when you try to bend it or wrap it around your finger but still has a slimy cap and at least sometimes bruise blue or blue-green then they are likely Psilocybe strictipes. this is assuming you are in north america or europe. these are the most common active grassland psilocybes there.
i believe i can see blueing in those two specimens from your picture and i can see that the cap is smooth and looks consistent with a pelliculouse cap. the gills look to be sporulating purple brown. it also looks like the stipes are broken.

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.
