Could someone tell me what kind of mushrooms these are?
Thanks for looking.

Look like Rhodactis to me.

Rhodactis has my vote as well

I do not know. Can you get a close up of one or have an updated shot? There is some unsusually heavy scalloping of the edges associated with those ridgelines that radiate from the mouth. At first glance from that magnification it seems safe to call it a Rhodactis Sp. But ah, I've never seen them quite like that. Do they smooth those wrinkles out? They could be some kind of fuzzy Discosoma Sp. I'm just going to have to say not sure just yet.

I did some looking around and saw a mushroom style exactly like yours that was listed as Rhodactis Sp. The only difference was color. A very forest green color with those funny ridges being dark chocolate brown. I hope that helps a little.

This picture was taken the same day I posted it. They stay just like that all the time. Never appear smooth or flat. These are a very bright glowing green color.
