I normally like to include the common and scientific names for the species that I come across when making a post here, but on occasion I come across a species that I cannot find an identification for. Attached are a few images of fungi I have come across over the last few months that have me stumped.
If you believe that you know the ID for one or more of the attached species, suggestions are greatly appreciated!
I will send 1 Hive per confirmed ID to the account that is first able to provide the scientific name of the species being identified along with some form of peer-reviewed, third-party evidence to back up their suggestion. Examples of sources that I often use when trying to identify a species include printed field guides as well as mushroomexpert.com and mushroomobserver.org. These are not the only sources that I accept as valid, but I mention them here since they a representative of the level of detail I am hoping for in a positive identification.
As suggestions with evidence come in, I will update this post to change the assumed name of the identified species along with credit to the account who identified the species. If you believe that this ID is still incorrect, feel free to offer your new suggestion! If your newly provided evidence clearly outweighs what has previously been provided, the ID and bounty allocation will be changed accordingly. I will keep these bounties live until Friday of next week when I will send the rewards to the qualifying accounts.
Thank you fungi lovers! Go collect your bounties!

Hmm specimen 3 kind of reminds me of
Lepiota aspera https://www.mushroomexpert.com/lepiota_aspera.html
Specimen 2 reminds me of Phlebia incarnata
Thank you! I'll update the post with these as the leading suggestions. Lepiota seems like a reasonable genus for specimen 3 to me given the scales on the cap. I originally looked at Phelbia incarnata as a possible ID for specimin 2 as well, but I thought that the coloration and the way that the edge of each shelf seems to have a frilled margin were a bit off. Maybe its just a highly variable species or a related species of crust fungi? Either way, you are in the lead! Thank you!
