Hello Uta, if the fungus is a
Macrolepiota sp. we could be pretty sure, that you are right. But despite that I think female
Kesselimyia chandleri is correct - see:

Hello Eric,
thank you for your answer and the hint. The heads of the mushrooms were allmost done, but they looked like Parasol mushrooms (Macrolepiota).
Greetings, Uta
