Habitat: NE Oh. found by a buddy of mine who seen Im interested in shroomery and brought this to me. It was found growing near a strip mine on a gradual slope.
Gills: no exposed gills
Stem: not much of a stem
Cap: convex, almost like marble texture. craters in it for spore release I think.
Spore print color: guessing black as puff mushrooms have black spores.
Bruising: none noticed
Other information: scent not great but not bad.

Cross section? Maybe Pitholithus.

Yea, exactly, start at the apex (top of the fungus) and cut it right down the center. Then take pictures of the interior, in the future you should always do this for puffballs. It can often be helpful with normal mushrooms too.

Was it growing out of the ground/on wood? I'm wondering if it might be a gall...
-------------------- "Shrub, 30-90 cm. Leaves 2.5-) 4-9 cm, sessile or amplexicaul, broadly ovate to ovate-oblong, obtuse or rounded to subapiculate or subacute, when crushed not smelling of goats." "The initial quake was a 6.6 but fairly shallow. I felt it as a prolonged up and down vibration followed by a jolt forward and then to the left, like square dancing."

Definitely in the Sclerodermataceae and most likely Pisolithus.

-------------------- Mr. Mushrooms said: I will confess something that should be quite obvious, CC. I love mushrooms, i.e. fungi. I really do. I am talking about a strong feeling, i.e. emotion, for them. I think they are beautiful. I even dream of them.
