Alex, how does this one look to you? Entoloma clypeatum Shape & structure looks right to me.http://www.rogersmushrooms.com/gallery/DisplayBlock~bid~5908~gid~~source~gallerydefault.asp

Thanks for the tip Alex, I will check out entoloma.

look, there is enough to recognize: the gills are narrow, not attached at the stem, white not rossy. Take a look at local entoloma- species (could be very wrong) , as said, will look the next time if i can help you
KarenL
I've added a (very blurry) photo of the underside.
AlexKonig
just put them on, a not well focused picture is better then none. Maybe there are still some distuingish features to recognize
KarenL
Thanks Alex! I did take photos of the gills but they were not well focused - the light was very poor. I will add one anyway if that helps.
AlexKonig
for this one shall we find an id, the other one isn't much to go on. When you haven't already an id, i will look the next time. btw nice
