The dune stinkhorn (Phallus hadriani) is a species of fungus recognized by its phallic-shaped fruiting body and its pitted and ridged cap. It is distinguished from the common stinkhorn by the pink or violet-colored volva at the base of the stem. As the common name implies, the fungus has a strong odor; some describe it as pleasant, while others find it foetid or putrid.Photo credit: Nathan Wilson
