Category hierarchy: Fungi & Lichens | Mushrooms, Truffles, & MorelsDescription: Spongecake Clathrus (peach coloration) in a fragmented woodlands. Possibly Clathrus columnatus – the "columned stinkhorn." The photographer describes Clathrus fungi with the term "birdcage" because of their structure, and proposes the common name "spongecake fungus" for this particular species because of its texture and orange or peach coloration.Capture device: Camera: Fuji FinePix S3100Original date: 20071213Locality: Latitude: 2.916820000000000e+001; Longitude: -8.152140000000000e+001
