Hair does not rub off. Basidiocarp is thin and even.
Bartam Trail, Franklin, NC
Found on stump of a cut tree.
Growing in wet, mossy, trail embankment soil
I think @corndog collected this
Not positive on this ID. Bit early for Pholiota, but this growing on barkless wood in a mixed forest. Didn't get a great pic of the gills because they were small, but they appear close, not crowded and whitish.
This one has a super scrobiculate stipe and is under Beech.

On hardwood bark in a mixed forest understory
in grass around Quercus palustris tree (E08-6)
Growing in mixed conifer forest under a yew tree. Pileus matte, powdery lipstick-brick red, with raggedy white veil tissue at margin. Lamellae reddish pink, free. Stripe fibrous, reddish with white scales, bruising dark red easily. K+ black, smell indistinct
Under some leaf litter on loamy soil
On 150+ year old Thuja plicata, KOH reaction red, red-orange (pictured in close up of collection)
Pores .75-1 per cm, with white sebiculum, microscopy pending
In sandy soil and pine duff under Pinus strobus. Smells like mushroom, like grocery store Agaricus.
Small white mushrooms were growing on decorticated hardwood log. Crowded and slimy on top.
Stuck to fallen leaves and limb of Tulipfera liriodendron. It seemed to act as an adhesion between the two.
Under white pine, maple and rhododendron. All white, cap to 2 cm. Very acrid after 5 seconds.

Seemed to be growing from the duff rather than directly from wood. Found in mixed hardwood/conifer forest.
Found by Victoria; SDNWR intern.
C. cf. muscigena?

V120. Growing on a dead branch that was lying on the ground in a mesquite bosque at 3300 ft. in elevation. Each disk was smaller than my fingernail. Resembles Aleurodiscus, but I am not sure that is the ID.

Gregarious on thick sedge debris over peat in wet meadow, under Carex and Betula glandulosa. Spores small, white, smooth, ellipsoid, inamyloid. Photos taken in dark conditions — see tackle box photo for mostly accurate color
