Field Notes
Description:
Ground mushroom; less than 5cm long; rudimentary stem with a terminal globose "ball-shaped" spore sac; gray, light brown to dark brown colored; appearing scattered or forming large groups.
Habitat:
Found these close to a Schinus molle tree (15 - 40cm away) in the middle of the dry season.
Notes:
I saw this fungus in quite large groups, always in the same spot (see habitat) sometimes in pairs, but mostly individually.
