these fungi grew on (rabbit infested) sand dunes near Gwithian, Cornwall last summer/autumn. Can anybody help to identify them, please?

3)
Unfortunately I haven't got any additional information about nor pictures of them. |

| | | Re: sand dunes fungi IDs 2) Nos 1,2 Hygrocybe persistens maybe, though your fungi have a bit of the jizz of Hygrocybe punicea about them, which by the stem (not coarsely fibrous) and overall colour I don't think they are, but they might be Hygrocybe aurantiosplendens which does have an H punicea jizz, but is more orange and has a smoothish/finely fibrillose stipe. I'm getting rusty on the Hygrocybe .. didn't find many last year as I've yet to find a really good site near Scarborough.  So over to AlanS ....
No 3, looks as if the gills might be turning dark, so a Psathyrella perhaps.
Cheers

| | | Re: sand dunes fungi IDs 2) With Hygrocybe the photos only help so far. They are tricky. Though not as tricky as Psathyrella ...
