Growing on hardwood debris I think. Oak, hemlock, and birch present
Under a hardwood that is pictured. Really close to the base of the trunk. Edge of a gravel road
Biggest I've ever seen. Growing from an area where there used to be a dog lot
Under Rhododendron, Hemlock, and Hardwoods in moss; trailside. 365nm UV reaction
Non acrid taste. Creamy, buff, to white colored caps. Under Pinus
Picked up around the flag Rock area. No in situ photos. Fluorescent with 365nm uv
Under live Maple on edge of woods
Under Maples in park setting near woods. Viscid cap. Pleasant smell and taste.
Pores blueing instantly with contact, bright yellow flesh blueing slowly to dark green/blackish.
Growing from an extremely decayed stump. Hardwood forest.
Possibly C. affinis? Specimens ranging in size from <1mm to 10mm. Fuzzy stem above and below. Edges Browning with age. Smash them into an almost clear mush. Highly decayed log with a colony featuring potentially hundreds or thousands of specimens. mixed hardwood (oak, rhododendron, maple, magnolia, beech) very few conifers.

A. cf aureosylvatica
photos and found by Joelle Faith
growing in sphagnous wetland
Exceptionally viscid mushrooms
No bruising, ammonia greenish, koh dark orange
This observation is being uploaded as a step in getting it sequenced; the collector is not an iNat user and sent it to me to process for DNA testing.
It was found fruiting on a piece of wild-collected driftwood that was boiled and placed in a fish tank. The fruiting appeared approximately 3 weeks after the driftwood was collected.
The second picture of the mushroom is around 12 hours after he first noticed it.
Likely not Psathyrella aquatica, most opinions on facebook were suggesting Coprinellus sect. domestici so that is my initial ID but it is for sure not confirmed that and will be sequenced soon.

Under hemlock and yellow birch, on almost an island.
Staining: slight reddish brown staining resolving to black on cut flesh and pores, musty odor
chemical tests-
cap: NH4OH (Ammonia): Discoloration on margin of where the drop hit, droplet was distinctly yellowish amber colored
KOH: vinaceous red droplet resloving to dark purple
FeSO4 (Iron Salts): Bluish gray, dark (cap was dark)
stipe:
NH4OH (Ammonia): dark on dark part of stipe (couldn't see droplet, absorbed, and looks black still)
KOH: vinaceous red, resolved dark slightly vinaceous
FeSO4 (Iron Salts): blue gray, slightly darker on light part of stipe
cap context:
NH4OH (Ammonia): at first yellowish amber, then dark scaley on light background, noticeable indentation
KOH: at first vinaceous red, then dark scaly on light background, deep indentation
FeSO4 (Iron Salts): blue gray resolving to blue gray
Growing near Pinus ponderosa and Quercus gambelii.
Maple beech oak. Ave. spore size 10 x 7 microns.

Spotted first by user connorsantez.
Flesh is very brittle and slightly wrinkled, green reaction to FeSO4 on stem. No distinct odor or taste. In moss/leaf litter under hardwoods near a wetland.
Under hemlock. Pleasant mushroom odor, super fucking bitter.
Less than 1/4 inch tall and mature
These are young fresh wood ear growing in the sunlight along with an abundance of traditionally colored wood ear. They have a different (but tasty) flavor. Causing me to wonder if this is a different species rather than an albino variety. Sampled for MycoFlora and Ayda Hayden herbarium.
I'm guessing this is most likely E. frostii, but I haven't found any examples of E. frostii with such a bright yellow stipe like this one.
Edit: I went back and found the cap with bites taken out of it and mo stipe, but the little bit of stipe still attached definitely has red in it. Adjusting the identification to E. frostii
at first, stubby bits emerged, a week later, opened up to a sort of mushroom - has all my friends puzzled ! going back next week to see if any helpful changes occurred !
Growing on a mossy old conifer log. Definitely a gilled mushroom, but which?
Nearby trees were sugar maple, cucumber magnolia, and black cherry.
Mature spores at 400x (highest mag with current equipment unfortunately)
