1) could be parasola plicitalis
2) honey fungus? or fawn pluteus?
3) is most likely ganoderma applanatum but I have been told a microscope is needed to properly confirm
4) stump puffball  |

Not so fast !!
No 1. Looks more like a Psathyrella sp. but is definitely not Parasola plicatilis - there are no 'pleats' for a start.
No 2. Almost certainly Pluteus salicinus

The big gills on number two make me think Volvariella bombycina but Neil's probably right with P. salicinus. |

I'm pretty certain the cap doesn't look silky enough for V.bombycina, Nick.

Personally, I think 'silky' is a wrong word to use to describe V.bombycina, the Silky Rosegill, as I think the cap is more fibrous, but Fibrous Rosegill ain't sexy.
