So cal morel ?
    #19144687 - 11/16/13 10:03 AM (10 years, 3 months ago)

Found this little guy growing in a wood chipped area near a bunch of leratiomyces ceres. Only a few inches high and kind of black and white. I just left it where it was since it's like right next to my home

Wow, amazing! I've never seen anything like it!
It's not a morel, I'd call it a stinkhorn of some kind, Phallaceae family.

Aye wow. That's what I thought - certainly looks like rotting gleba in there but the stem is very Helvella/Morchella and the ridges and stature are morel-like. It's an interesting one.

Bizzare, I totally agree with Joie on that assessment. Which lands an ID absolutely NO WHERE!

Do us a favor and keep an eye out for more of them possibly at different stages of development. Also does it smell awful, like rotting flesh possibly?

Interesting ! :smile2: Is there anything I could do to help with an ID ?
I had no idea it was there (or it wasn't) when I saw the leratiomyces patch yesterday morning

I could always go pick it to examine it further ! I don't have a microscope or anything though

you don't really need a microscope, there should be enough macroscopic info to go on.  If you do collect this, take a cross section photo so we can see the guts.

Cook it in butter or olive oil, kind of a high temperature.  When it is done (browned on all sides) add a tiny bit of salt and pepper.
