The foreground cap with the split cap shows a little of what appear to be dark-spored gills. That and the colour, shape, size and gregarious growth habit very much suggest the species in my ID - but there's still a faint chance it's something else (e.g. a species of Hypholoma, a genus in which Leratiomyces ceres was once placed).
