#1 Habitat: grass/moss- Found on the entrance to someones yard, growing straight from the moss/grass mixture.
Gills: Cant be seen, I dont think this one opened.
Stem: Whitish, pretty fragile, bulbous near the top, has some yellow near the top, and some yellow spot type things.
Cap: Orange to dark orange/brown, has some kind of tiny raised things I couldnt figure a name for.
Spore print color: How can I take one, this one isn't open?
Bruising: Appears to bruise brown, but also has some purple staining, or what could be parts of the flesh.
Location: Picked in north eastern mass, USA






#2
Habitat: grass/moss- Found on the entrance to someones yard, growing straight from the moss/grass mixture.
Gills: Free, purple like the cap.
Stem: Purple to pale purple, pretty fragile, slightly enlarged at base.

Spore print color: Being taken at the moment
Bruising: Either purple, or no color change
Location: Picked in north eastern Mass, USA





#3
Habitat: grass- Found on the side of the road, growing straight from grass.
Gills: Free, Orange/Gold.
Stem: dark brown getting darker as it moves awat from the cap, pretty fragile, but doesnt snap cleanly, skinny throughout.

Looks like the same thing as #3, but lighter, probably due to the fact that they came from diffent patches.

Cap: Raised in the middle, the raised part is alot darker than he rest. Light brown in the middle, pale towards the edge.

well the purple mushroom looks like clitocybe nuda to me. You're gonna want a second opinion on that, but if that is it, you have a pretty nice edible there.
The brown ones look like marasmius to me, though im not sure which specific species.

it does look like a lewit might want to take a spore print see if it comes out creamy. It growing on the side of the road and from grass makes me a bit skeptical . A word of advice though, eating mushrooms from the side of a road is never really too good of an idea, for the sake of pollution and what not. Depends on how busy the road is I guess. The top one looks like a lil honey mushroom, take a print of that if you can.

None of those are active.
The first one looks like a Honey Mushroom button to me. There are other possibilities, but that's the most obvious one.
The second one is likely to be a Cortinarius. The slimy cap surface suggests that.
The other two look like common lawn Marasmius.
Happy mushrooming!

On the second one (with the purple cap) a spore print will definitively decide what it is. Be sure to make the spore print on white paper.
Cortinarius will have a rusty brown spore print. Lepista (Clitocybe) will have a very pale pinkish tan spore print.
Happy mushrooming!
