Identifying Mushrooms

Get help identifying mushrooms and classify them in the proper genus & species? (NOTE: it is very difficult to be 100% certain of the ID of a mushroom from just descriptions & photos online. Be sure what you have by doing your own research. Don't eat any mushroom you are not 100% certain of it's ID.)
