Just noticed this growing in my terrarium;
does anyone know what it is?
It must have grown very fast, since I only just noticed it

Tawaka? Found in a willow root. If it is, we would like to taste it but can’t find any useful articles on whether it has lookalikes.

What kind of fungi is this?
I came across these fungi out in a field this last week. The field is pastureland in #Alberta frequented by grazing cattle.
They kinda look like the tiny round "puff-ball" fungi around here that max-out about the size of a golf ball. Except, like it exploded up instead of having a small spore releasing aperture. These are comparatively massive. The ones that were there were all at least 5 cm in diameter and most were closer to 10cm. One was probably 15cm.
The "bowl" appears to have a dark brown "filling" I assume is where the spores are released from.
The ones I had seen were often in a southward (more sun) facing side of slopes, generally facing toward the average sun location during morning through noon.
I did find some (what I believe are) Calvatia gigantea - Giant Puffball nearby a few of the specimens, but at least 15 to 20 m away. I don't know if they are part of the same fungi or not.

What is it?
thanks!
