Peltigera identification request

The following were photographed at Loch Druidibeg in South Uist, growing in a former plantation area.
The first speciment was found growing amongst heather near a cleared area (site of a fire) and was in a relatively dry spot. I think it is probably Peltigera membranacea.
The second specimen was growing in a wet area among mosses. Unlike the first the upper surface was smooth (not felted) and the rhizines were brown and not white/grey. Struggling to name this one, so id guidance would be helpful.
Thank you
CJ
