Lycoperdon Foetidum
''Lycoperdon'' is a genus of puffball mushrooms. The genus has a widespread distribution and contains about 50 species. In general, it contains the smaller species such as the pear-shaped puffball and the gem-studded puffball. It was formerly classified within the now-obsolete order Lycoperdales, as the type genus which, following a restructuring of fungal taxonomy brought about by molecular phylogeny, has been split. ''Lycoperdon'' is now placed in the family Agaricaceae of the order Agaricales. The scientific name has been created with Greek words (''lycos'' meaning ''wolf'' and ''perdomai'' meaning ''to fart'') and based on several European dialects in which the mushroom name sounds like ''wolf-farts''. Most species are edible, ranging from mild to tasting distinctly of shrimp. Species * ''Lycoperdon caudatum'' (Syn.

Lycoperdon Perlatum
''Lycoperdon perlatum'', popularly known as the common puffball, warted puffball, gem-studded puffball or devil's snuff-box, is a species of puffball fungus in the family Agaricaceae. A widespread species with a cosmopolitan distribution, it is a medium-sized puffball with a round ascocarp (fungus), fruit body tapering to a wide stalk, and dimensions of wide by tall. It is off-white with a top covered in short spiny bumps or "jewels", which are easily rubbed off to leave a netlike pattern on the surface. When mature it becomes brown, and a hole in the top opens to release spores in a burst when the body is compressed by touch or falling raindrops. The puffball grows in fields, gardens, and along roadsides, as well as in grassy clearings in woods. It is edible mushroom, edible when young and the gleba, internal flesh is completely white, although care must be taken to avoid confusion with immature fruit bodies of poisonous mushroom, poisonous ''Amanita'' species.

Lycoperdon Echinatum
''Lycoperdon echinatum'', commonly known as the spiny puffball or the spring puffball, is a type of puffball mushroom in the family Agaricaceae. The saprobic species has been found in Africa, Europe, Central America, and North America, where it grows on soil in deciduous woods, glades, and pastures. It has been proposed that North American specimens be considered a separate species, ''Lycoperdon americanum'', but this suggestion has not been followed by most authors. Molecular analysis indicates that ''L. echinatum'' is closely related to the puffball genus ''Handkea''. The fruit bodies of ''L. echinatum'' are wide by tall, supported by a small base, and densely covered with spines that are up to long. The spines can fall off in maturity, leaving a net-like pattern of scars on the underlying surface. Initially white in color, the puffballs turn a dark brown as they mature, at the same time changing from nearly round to somewhat flattened. Young specimens of ''L.&n ...

Lycoperdon Pratense
''Lycoperdon pratense'', commonly known as the meadow puffball, is a type of puffball mushroom in the genus ''Lycoperdon''. In the early stages of development its skin is scruffy whereas its bigger relatives have smooth skins. It grows to wide and tall. Its stump-like stem differentiates it from the giant puffball. It is found in Great Britain and Ireland, including the Outer Hebrides, mainland Europe, and occasionally in North America, and is commonly seen in sand dune systems, where it can be abundant in dune slacks as well as in grassland and lawns (as its vernacular name suggests). It is edible An edible item is any item that is safe for humans to eat. "Edible" is differentiated from " eatable" because it does not indicate how an item tastes, only whether it is fit to be eaten.

Lycoperdon Marginatum
''Lycoperdon marginatum'', commonly known as the peeling puffball, is a type of puffball mushroom in the genus ''Lycoperdon''. It is characterized by the way that the spiny outer layer peels off in sheets. A common species, it is found in Europe and North America, where it grows on the ground. Taxonomy The species was first described scientifically in 1839 by Vittadini. Molecular analysis places it the species in the subgenus ''Lycoperdon'' of the genus ''Lycoperdon'', along with '' L. perlatum'' and '' L. norvegicum''. It is commonly known as the peeling puffball. Description The fruit bodies of ''Lycoperdon marginatum'' are roughly spherical when young, becoming flattened and more pear-shaped in maturity, and have dimensions of wide. A short, tapering stalk holds the fruit body. Initially white, the surface of the peridium (spore case) is densely covered with short spines; the spines eventually fall off in irregular sheets, exposing the smooth, brown underlying s ...
