p. foenisecii are said to have white stems and dark brown spores

P. subbalteatus have black spores and reddish stems with white undertones

by the stems i can see i would also say possibly subbalteatus , can you get spore print colour?

Hey Mckennaisgod! The guys are right, the caps of foenisecii are rather greyish. I´d sporeprint em because theres always people who´d love microscope them. In some parts of the world, they are actually very desirable. bye Eg

They haven't spore printed yet? You're cheering for a jet (JET) black colour. Not dark brown.

These cant be subbs then. Subbs have a very dark black print often quite heavy. If you have access to a scope Foe spores are also verrucose which can be used to distinguish it from many other pan species.

I've been wanting to invest in one for a while now. Any advice on what brands/models to look out for?

subbs are fairly uncommon in fall I think. need to be checking in spring and summer

I agree, Subbs predominate in the warmer months of the year though one may still find a few late stragglers.

These would most likely be either foes or some other pan species. In the latter case it may yet be active. It's estimated that only 5-10% of Australia's fungal species have been described.
