LOCATION:
The Outpost Area
DATE FOUND:
Day 1 – 12 August 2023
In leaf litter on soil, in a well trodden area.
This white fungus was just emerging and could have been a puffball, Phallus impudicus or perhaps an Amanita species.

On Day 2 (19 August 2023) I assumed this fungus could be a Phallus impudicus egg because of its translucent, cinnamon-buff areas, but when I went back to check it a week later, all traces of it had disappeared.
