    Here are some different fungi specimens I was interested in identifying. I'm sorry if this was the wrong forum to post this in, or if there is no forum to post this in. I thought I might try asking for help here anyway. Thanks for any help!

    The last two photos are of the same fungus, just from different views.

    Thanks for posting photos Nmlluver,

    With shelving mushrooms, or cap and stem mushrooms, often a photo of the underside of the cap, of the spore producing surface, is needed to help with ID.

    If you can post a photo of the underside of #2 and #4 that may help with ID. #5 looks like a Slippery Jack (Suillus sp.). #3 looks like a member of "tribe Coprini" :-)

    cheers,
    frog
