Devil's Snuff-box

Lycoperdon perlatum

Description:

Better known as Puffball, this fruiting body is spherical, whitish and about 5cm in height.

Habitat:

Here, seen in grasslands and edges of coniferous alpine forests, in August 2021, in High Jura natural reserve, at about 1550m of altitude. At this level, we were just at the border of treeline, and on subalpine pastures, very green and lush for the season.
