The world is waiting in stunned suspence for the answer. I keep trying to figure out respectable things that a schoolmarm would own, but sadly find my imagination lacking.--Chris

I have a friend who is an expert on fungi, but I doubt even he has seen one of these... I'll pass it by him and let you know Wink

I think I may have found it - do you think it could be an elegant stinkhorn?
check out the web link and it's about the third fungi down the page.

Pudnpie, that's incredible investigative work. It seems there are a few varieties. Now that the mystery has been cleared up, I have to say, Bridget, that's the best stinkhorn photo I've ever seen. Wink
