My search for Colticia cinnamomea yielded the following link. Could it
be possible that so many different types come under the colticia
cinnamomea

Different colour is expected from the species 

starting from pale cream colour to bark brown and even black.

Thank You Tanay. My question though is that there are so many
different kinds of mushrooms looking totally different to the one
posted by me. some are with stem, some are thick and fleshy, Do all
these come under Coliticia Cinnamomea?

Yazdy.

Actually I believe the answer is yes 

I just tried the colour example to demonstrate the variability in this particular mushroom
