Nice photos and specimens.

It's important when IDing for us to know what part of the country you're finding these things in.

Those first ones look like Oysters. If you've not found them before, be sure to make a spore print and verify that it's white to pale lilac in color.

Those next guys are Amanitas, as you guessed. And the correct term (and spelling!) is volva.

Those things on the top of the chanterelle are probably spots where the mushroom got confused and tried to grow gills on the top of the cap instead of the bottom. While not something you see every day, I see it a few times every year while hunting. The other possibility would be some sort of cup fungus that's decomposing the chanterelle, but I've never seen that on chanterelles and the cup fungi like that are usually pretty different looking from the mushroom they're attacking.

Happy mushrooming!

yeah, just found that. The saddle mushroom. I thought they might have been early morels not false ones, btw. My bad.
