I have found these fungi around the base of a beech tree. It's evident there are two different types. Could anyone point me in the direction of what either or both may be? One has a colar so suspicious it may be honey fungus but not convinced. There is a photo of the undersides of both next to each other for comparison.

The first pic could be Pholiota squarrosa - Shaggy Scalycaps. There's some good pics here: https://www.wildfooduk.com/mushroom-guide/shaggy-pholiota/

 

It would be worth doing a spore print as honey fungus will show a pale white/cream print and the Shaggies a rusty brown print. (If you only have one cap put it gills down on half white paper/card and half black and leave for a couple of hours).
