a variety of wild mushrooms
Yes. Mushrooms are champiñón, but all the rest are normally lumped together as "wild mushrooms" = setas.
So that we don't lose any impact, I've offered the above merged but tasty sounding rendition.
Of course, setas can actually be cultivated, but I'm ignoring that fact!

Different types of wild mushrooms
Or:
Mixed wild musrooms
(depending on how you translate the rest of the entry)
Although the standard definition for hongo with respect to food is edible fungus, I just wouldn't put that on a menu. ;->
I have often seen seta as wild mushrooms vs. just mushroom for champiñon (for food, of course, not a biology translation and the technical species names areused).
