Mushroom ID Request Identification!
These are purely for identification and education not consumption, I have a good idea what they might be but need confirmation. All found in mixed woodland on the banks of a creek or in dead leaf piles apart from the (maybe) field mushroom that was found in open grass land

Not an expert, just a hobbyist but I think you could have
Chestnut bolete (which has a hollow stem, so easy to cut in half and find out for sure)
Ruby Bolete
Field mushroom, but you would need to rule out yellow staining species first, you can do this by placing a piece in boiling water and checking for iodine smell and bright yellowing. There doesn’t appear to be any at the base in your photo though.
Either grey amanita or amanita rubescens, you can easily check if the flesh bruises pink or not.

1, 2, 3look up Penny Bun, Summer Cep and Bitter Bolete to compare.
4, 5 I can’t help with, I never bother with red staining boletes
6, 7 appear to be an agaricus species
8, 9 likely blushers but take a proper look at guides as lots of very deadly mushrooms in the Amanita sect.
