Hi Mark
Nice Fungi. The 9th (3rd last) one looks like a Russula to me. Not much help on the others, sorry

Difficult this, thanks for helping. Takes ages to thumb through the books, only to find that there isn't one just like the one you photographed. Anyway, I think you're right, another Russula, possibly R. lenkunya again. There's also R. clelandii, but I only have this fairly rough photo to go on so far.
