A selection of fungi for ID

Hopefully someone can narrow down for me the names to these fungi. Seen in deciduous and mixed woodland in south Oxfordshire on 09/09/10.
All I have to offer is these pictures and an idea of size so if it can only be narrowed down to genus that's ok

Many thanks in advance.

Found growing on ground on the edge of a forest access road. Height 60mm

Again on ground on the edge of a forest access road. Cup diameter 30mm

Growing in grass under bracken. Cup size 60mm

?Bolete sp.? Growing on ground under deciduous trees. Cup size 80mm

This one intrigues me! Growing in leaf litter under beech/birch. Diameter 100mm

Growing on fallen log, probably beech/birch. Cup size 50mm

Hello there,

1 & 2 Look like Blackening Wax Cap - Hygocybe conica

3 False Chanterelle - Hygophoropsis aurantiaca

4 A Leccinum (I'll leave this for someone with more experience of these)

5 Blackening Russula - R.nigricans

6 An Amanita (for someone else to have a bash at) !

Neil.
