Hysterangium coreaceum is one of about 25 species of
Hysterangium found in Northern Temperate forests. They are
thought to be closely related to the stinkhorns and have a greenish to
olive-brown spore mass that becomes slimy and unpleasant smelling in old
age. Hysterangium coreaceum is the most common species and
is found wide-spread under hardwoods and conifers spring through fall.
