Growing from soil in creekbed under ash trees. Diminutive and fragile mycenoids, pileus greenish-beige to white, darkest at pileus and along striations which correspond to lamellae. Lamellae widely spaced and decurrent, off-white. Stipe off-white, thin, with a very fine grainy to tomentose ornamentation and extensive white basal tomentum.
Like ‘conifericola PNW01” but not quite

Extreme lack of moisture locally. This mushroom found in black muck type soil.
Devils club and fern understory of 125 year old forest.
Found in needle duff underneath cedrus atlantica. No odor that I recall, no old specimens turning in to ink that I recall. Black spore deposits. The last photo was taken 20 days after the others.
In Thuja plicata litter. Never seen again.
ITS tree using GTR (G+I) model with sequences downloaded from @dannymi's website and He et al., 2023.
Growth on senescent, damp outer leaves of Typha cattails.
Fruiting beneath Douglas fir and Western red cedar.
Cap: brownish gray, greasy/waxy, depressed at disc/infundibule. Faintly/tightly striate at incurved margins. Hygrophanous(fading to grayish tan).
Gills: slightly decurrent.
Stem: cylindrical to slightly flattened. Concolorous with cap. Faint white bloom at base.
Odor: not distinct.
Harvested 6 specimens.
Spore printed a single cap directly on a glass slide.
Spore print: White.
Mounted spore print in KOH.
Spores: Ellipsoid, smooth, some slightly curved. Medium/small in size.
Dehydrated all specimens thoroughly and bagged for herbarium collection/genetic record.
My coinciding Mushroomobserver observation below-
On soil and moss, or perhaps very decayed woody debris? on mossy subalpine lakeshore
spores 8.3-10.2 x 4.8-5.8
On wood debris under mix conifers. These are small, about 4 cms.
Spore print light brown.
Spores oval or elliptic, (5.5 - 6.7) x (3.8 - 4.2) ; Q=1.50
Genbank ITS PP313073
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
growing around a boggy pond edge between Sphagnum patches among Bog St. John's wort, another bog specific species Galerina paludosa nearby. Nearby plant species are Willow, Sugar pine, Pacific silver fir and Spirea.
Urban
Dome cap, entirely pruinose stipe, stem bulb
Fairly nodulose spores, skinny metuloids (upper body)
Growing on an old stump near Mycena epipterygia
Pleasant mushroom smell, buttery taste. Bottom half of stipe has bluish color with that part mainly under the moss. Growing through moss transplanted 2 years ago into a garden, overtop of a combo of soil and compost.
Cap faded to light tan once dry, bluing more pronounced. Last photo is 12hrs after picking.

UVF 365 nm = gills yellow green to pink, both weakly. yellow on stipe right before it hits gills
KOH = yellow on cap
did not bleed
Very small, largest caps ~1cm.
Consistent white cap/orange gills. Growing on a large hemlock stump
thick walled, amyloid, spiny globose spores about 7microns. In swampy area on muck. Very tough and fibrous compared to e.g mycena, with prominent pointy umbo on mature specimens
Maybe? Unclear if that species occurs in the PNW, but it has a brown spore print (browner in real life than in pics) on overlapping caps and distinct stipes. In coastal area with primarily Sitka spruce and some western hemlock.
Spores more or less round, spiny, 4-5 microns. Pics of cheilocystidia in photos.
Single fruiting body with half a cap. In swampy area on edge of fen
suggested new species: protubera cerebrum
Pholiota pinguis?; associated with Alder; spores 6.7-8.2 x 4.4-4.8 um.
On dung, appendiculate, small annulus, stem apex diffrent from lower part.
