| Description |
upper left - Lycoperdon curtisii Curtis' puffball - these dont get bigger than 1-2 cm. Cute fellas. lyco perdon - wolf flatulence species names that end in -ii generally refer to the person who named it, hence curtisii upper right - Scleroderma citrinum The Earthball - this gets much bigger, around 10 cm. Cut these open and you'll find brownish purple spores. Even though it looks like a canteloupe, these ones are poisonous. Sclero derma - hard skin citrin - lemon yellow lower left - Lycoperdon pyriforme The most common puffball around these parts. I often find these guys in massive clusters overtaking a whole decomposing deadfall. pyriforme - pear shaped lower right - Lycoperdon perlatum The Gem Studded Puffball - one of my favorites. Very pretty - bright white in color. This one is quite young, maybe a centimeter across, but they get five to six times bigger. perlatum - widespread, enduring |
