    Hah, now I understand your remark on the other photos of this species. Another amazing find.

    Your constant highlights are worthy of a nickname. Don't know yet what it will be, working on it.     Posted 5 years ago

The Latticed stinkhorn

"Clathrus ruber" is a species of fungus in the stinkhorn family, and the type species of the genus "Clathrus". It is commonly known as the latticed stinkhorn, the basket stinkhorn, or the red cage, alluding to the striking fruit bodies that are shaped somewhat like a round or oval hollow sphere with interlaced or latticed branches.
