various unidentified - help?

Question

Apologies for some blurry pics, but if anyone has any ideas about these they would be much appreciated - a few I only have down to genus level - others like 1 & 6 I just have no clue. :)

All were found at my place (Mid-North Coast-ish) back in March, so I will probably be seeing most of them again - would be good to get some IDs for the next time we meet!

Thanks @mysubtleascention yep I reckon you're on the money with guessowii.

 

Does anyone have any ideas about the rest? I mean, at first glance I would guess that (3) is an Agaricus of some kind (ah, but is it edible?), I can't remember what (5) is called (and there is a "shaggy-stemmed Austroboletus" which is confounding my searches for one that has a shaggy cap instead), and (7) some kind of Ramaria or the like? But what of the pretty candy-striped ones in (1)? Or those little black match-heads on (6) - I've never seen anything like those before. Or that cheeky blue staining on (2)? So many mysteries!

5 - maybe Boletellus emodensis

 

7 -maybe Artomyces austropiperatus (not as positive)

That's it! Thankyou, new-and-improved waterboy! Now that I see the name I vaguely remember making that mistake in the past as well - thinking that it must be an Austrobolete just because it was growing under eucalypts... so racist... or something. I have never even heard of Artomyces before, apparently there are shitloads more coral fungi than I thought there were. The area has amongst the highest rainfalls in NSW, so I'll probably be seeing a lot more of these little guys, thought it'd be polite to learn their names :wink:

1 - Marasmiellus sp or maybe a Entoloma

@spooge got it! Thankyou :)

Marasmius tageticolor looks like a good contender hey? (keeping in mind these little fellas had had a couple days heavy rain so mightn't have been looking their freshest)

number two is interesting

closest i can get is Laccaria, though the slight staining may mean its a Lactarius

^^^

I never even thought of them, the staining should've been a hint! The wide variation in colouring might make ID a little tricky, but there were heaps of them around so I'll try for some spore prints next time around. Been years since I tried any serious mushroom ID, I am very rusty and forgetting to do obvious stuff like that. @spooge, forgive the noob question, but why were you thinking Laccaria over Lactarius? ("it looks more like one" would be a fine answer, I'm just curious)

 

It also just occurred to me that 6 is probably actually a slime mold, which might make it difficult to key to a fungal family...

from the pic etc.... one of the books i have suggests Laccaria, no fungi real close as the pic you have posted but.

i'm thinking Lactarius due to the shape, gill structure, stem and the blue staining.

 

Nice bunch of mushrooms to have at home Anodyne.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction with the IDs, gotta get my mushroom-hunting game back on! It was the first time I'd stayed out there (at least, the first time with two working legs) and gotten to explore, and it just happened to coincide with some epic rain, so I was stoked to find so many fungal friends around. Found these little phosporescent Mycena (chlorophos maybe?) one night as well which I took as a blessing from the mushroom gods. They were growing right outside my back door too - or at least, where my back door would be, if I had a back wall - I've only ever found them once before so it was pretty magical to just look out the window and see them right there!

2. Phylloporus sp., maybe P. rhodoxanthus

3. Agaricus species. Many unknowns in Australia and need often to know about bruising and odour to even get close to an ID (and determine edibility). but something like Agaricus augustus or A. silvaticus might be a start. Like I say though, you often will not get to a concrete species (new DNA work is making this very clear about Aussie Agaricus).

4. Amanita is an enormous genus and I wouldn't even hazard a guess apart from a few fairly obvious ones. But either subgenus Lepidella, maybe something like A. flavoconia, but could also be in the Section Caesareae

6. Xylaria species

8. Calvatia species probably (providing it didn't have a buried stipe that can't be seen here)
