Eryngii? Not sure I'd call it common, at least in the eastern US. Shiitakis are pretty common though - consider adding.

Cremini is more common, but crimini is also used and should remain as a type-in.

Mushrooms are absolutely delicious, good sir. Stir-fry them, add some cream, optionally a bit of chives, let it cook for a little while, and you've got a marvelous sauce.

Super Mushroom should work for SMB3 power-ups, since that's the official name. Kuribo's Shoe should work for Goomba's Shoe, since that was the name in the US version of the game originally (PRG0) and in the Super Mario All-Stars remake for SNES (which was based on PRG0). Kuribo is the Japanese name for Goomba, but they forgot to translate Kuribo's Shoe to Goomba's Shoe when they released SMB3 in North America.
