Stinkhorn egg

Phallaceae, Phallus impudicus

Description:

It was gelatinous-looking, semitransparent on top. In the last pic I have removed it from the ground a moment, to show its bottom part. Although I could not see it progress later on, it is most likely a growing Phallus impudicus, based on the species most commonly found in these woods.

Habitat:

Meerdaalwoud, St Joris Weert.

Hi Marta, it looks similar to a Stinkhorn egg that's just 'hatching'
