mushroom trunk was sitting which instead of being covered by a cap was 

 covered by a thick layer of brown spores, just like a phallus. From the lower 

 end of the axil a strong root extended which, like eoutside, had a white skin, 

 rather rough. Tttey reminded me very much of the bad smelling phallus with the 

 stem füll of holes. ^jreJJjaw^ — ^ rn he S p 0res an d the stem were also 



:overed with a thin \ fl|?*f§| \ ^ eT of whlte cel1 tissue which in turn 

 was covered with a strongeVvi / gelatinous lsiyer. Is it perhaps really a 



tru phallus?
