no sorry (is already late), first reading then writing. puffball sure, from the picture seems he the langermannia gigantea (http://www.google.nl/search?um=1&hl=...) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langermanni...) to be, but the size of an orange, can be more species. maybe still a gigantea but a little one,or a very big juvenile bovista nigrenscens. but i still think more: the L.gigantea
