Anyway, back to the photos - the pale one at middle top, may be a type of Mottlegill (Panaeolus), but it could also be a lot of other things, the top right is quite unusual and I don't have any idea.
Bottom left could be a Mycena or even a Cortinarius.
You will note that I am having difficulty even with the Genus, this is because we really need to see the underneath as well which may then show the stem shape and any markings or a ring, and the gill shape and colour, which in turn would allow us to work out what colour the spores are likely to be.
A sideways view would also allow us a better perspective of the whole fungus.
Even after providing all that, you may still have an answer saying it will need to go under a microscope to be examined in more detail.
Sorry I can't be of much more help.
Neil. | Neil, thank you for your kind suggestions which I have noted and assume that when you mention 'bottom left' you are referring to the image of the pile of fungi which I uploaded.
The uncertainty arises from the fact that when I look ate the images uploaded I cannot see the one bottom left as they all appear in a single row. I have tried to add the image below but do not know if I have been successful.
It is me no doubt struggling with this damn computer technology.
Appreciate you help.

| | | Re: Unidentified Fungi - Mystery Fungi Sorry Brian,
When I'm typing out the reply, I kept scrolling down to remind myself of the pictures, but this way, they are arranged differently to what is displayed in the thread at the top, so just think of my sequence of reply as relating to the Nos 2,3,& 4 as shown at the top.
In other words, forget my 'middle top, top right, and bottom left, and replace it with 2, 3, and 4.
Hope that makes sense.

Neil. | Hi Neil,
Despite taking all my medication today I am now totally confused so I propose to try, if possible, to remove my enquiry to the forum and then resubmit it.
If I am successful then maybe you will be kind enough to have another go at helping this 'old cogger'.
Regards,
Brian. |

I've numbered the images so 1 and 5 are the ones that I think are sulphur tuft and I think 2, 3 and 4 are the ones Neil commented on.
