looks like "ink caps", take a look for "coprinellus micaceus" or "coprinellus truncorum", both are very similiar (they have little features, when your are lucky, those stand out : trucorum has the brighter stem.But thats no real point to distinguish them,just a bridge. When the specimen are older or just dirty, is't get more difficult again) look which one is more common in your area
