These fungi were found growing out of wombat droppings in Briagolong state forest in Victoria, Australia. I'm not sure whether they need wombat droppings to grow or not.
Cool, damp rain forest with tree ferns, shrubs and tall eucalyptus trees.
All sightings of this fungi were associated with wombat droppings. Not sure if that's a coincidence.

Good fungi. I'd like to ID this one. They probably are herbivore faeces specialists.
