chanterelles

Yesterday, for the first time, I've found what I thought were chanterelles. But upon further reading about false chanterelles I'm not so sure anymore. I thought I've understood the difference between gills and folds, but a bunch of pictures online of the false chanterelles got me confused- they also look like folds to me.. I Know they're not Omphalotus olearius, not as big and brightly colored, also not found on tree stumps and branches. But I'm not sure about Hygrophoropsis aurantiaca.

Can somebody please take a look and point me in the right direction?

As I returned home late yesterday, I've left them outside overnight, and they, I assume, dried up and got all reddish on the edges, gills and allover.

Here are the couple of them, pictured above, bellow and opened up:

1. One of the biggest, opened up last night, seemed white inside, now I can see a bit of orange color inside.. Maybe changed color from being opened up?

2. Are those gills or folds?

5. Certain those are folds, also seen small ridges in between folds..

8. some of the smaller ones now. This one seems not so white inside, hard to tell on a picture.

10. The most suspicious one, has a very thin ridges, but on closer look some of them look fatter and also have small ridges in between them.

11. ridges seem very thin. white inside but has a small holes that are orange. they seem like a worm holes, but according to some books, chanterelles don't get infested with worms?

12. rigdes, but alsmost white on the edges, I think happened over night.

13. slight orange color in the middle inside.

Here are also some black trumpets (raterellus cornucopioides). Usually I see them much darker on top, these ones are a bit brownish. Just checking those out too.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I should say, I don't get the apricot smell, no distinctive smell at all I think. Maybe also because they were outside last night and got dried up..?

Thanks everyone for your input. I'm still wondering how to distinguish gills and folds or false gills..

According to mushroomexpert "you will have noticed that each gill is structurally separate; you can, for example, separate it from the cap fairly easily, and it doesn't seem as though it was part of the cap. Separating a false gill from the mushroom, however, is not as easily accomplished, since the interior of the false gill is actually composed of the mushroom's flesh." Does the situation in this picture qualify as false gills separating easily from the mushroom flesh?

I think at least most of the pale ones (not the Black Trumpets) are a species of Cantharellus, but not one that I find here in eastern North America. However, these mushrooms are old and kinda dried. Appearance can be deceptive in this case.

Thanks everyone for your input.

I decided to get rid of them just in case, and they were dried up anyways. A few that I took pictures of were left on a table and the spore print they left behind was white, so that would mean hygrophoropsis aurantiaca, at least some of them.
