Description
Stinkhorns are remarkable fungi famous for their unusual shape and powerful odor, which resembles that of decaying organic matter. This scent attracts flies and other insects that help disperse their spores. Found in a variety of habitats, they often emerge from underground structures called eggs. Some species of stinkhorns can grow extraordinarily fast, appearing almost overnight.
