Suillus granulatus & puffball for confirmation please

[solus]

... and a possible Cortinarius for ID!

Cotswold limestone, common land with public golf course which has a number of Pine trees at the edges. These were under the Pines in the longer rough grass and many had been kicked/golf-sticked into oblivion while others seemed to be living their entire lifespan without showing much above the grass - I had to move the grass away to see them!

These were the first ones, caps dry and smooth, no colour change on cutting and the pores didn't bruise:



Further on, in an area of shorter grass and much more visible in the open were these with sticky caps (at first I thought they were going to be S. luteus which I found here last October but they aren't):

This is the "baby":

and the underneath of the bigger one:


The drops exuded from these led me to Weeping Bolete, Suillus granulatus and I believe all the above to be the same species in different stages of development (right down to the brown mushy, maggoty ones!)

Please can anyone confirm this or have I got it wrong again?

Also I came across these tiny developing Puffballs in the grass and think they are Meadow Puffball, Lycoperdon (Vascellum) pratense ? Again, confirmation would be greatly appreciated.


Finally - I haven't the foggiest about these! They were in the same sort of area as the Boletes and also some bright red Russulas which might be R. emetica. These had sort of pointy caps when young and the mature ones were flatter and with brownish gills. The caps were distinctly reddish. I thought Cortinarius sp.??
All suggestions welcome!



Thanks!

With the fibrilose cap I think the first one might be S collinitus. Nick sees them regularly so he may be able to confirm.

Yes, the first does look like Suillus collinitus- can just about make out the purple flecks on the stipe. Funny you say that Mal, I've not seen one yet this season!

Your last is Chroogomphus rutilus, a common species, but a very nicely designed one.

Ta!

Wa-hoo!! Thanks Nick - the Chroogomphus rutilus is a new one for me and I'd never have found it from my books! I've just looked at your superb Gallery pics of the species and reading your note that it's not just Cortinarius that show the webbing in young specimens makes me feel slightly better about being way out with the species -again!)

What about the Puffball - am I right or wrong with that?

Also, is Suillus granulatus correct for the second Bolete group? I had assumed that both lots were going to be the same species as I didn't think the stipe dots on the first went all the way down the stem (but I can't remember now) and the pores didn't bruise brown although the very old specimens did have brown pores. In addition, according to Jordan, S. collinitus [sounds like an unpleasant illness!] is rare.

Just think, when I started looking at fungi in that rather good autumn of 2006, with one little generalised WH Smith "field guide" I thought it was all going to be soooo easy!

I really am grateful to you (all) for the help with IDs.

Just a quick (if rather naughty) bump up to ask if anyone can confirm/otherwise my Puffball ID?

Thanks.
