I took 2 photos of this mushroom over the course of 24 hours. It looks like something has been eating some of it during the night, I came back the next day only to find some moron put their boot in and kicked it halfway down the road.
Can anyone please tell me what type of mushroom this is, it was very big, it has a really stramge shape and must have grown incredibly quick.· Date: Sat October 16, 2010 · Views: 483

I'm pretty sure this is an "Inkycap"

Some see the glass as being half empty
Some see the glass as half full
I see the glass as too small

Its a Shaggy Ink Cap - Coprinus comatus. They do grow quickly, but absorb moisture from the atmosphere and the gills go balck and soggy. Its also known as Lawyers Wig - for obvious reasons.
