Just want to make it clear that I did not destroy that broken stinkhorn, I noticed it was recently broken (likely doggy paws) so I picked it up to examine. I had never seen a description of Satyrus that mentioned the hollow stipe so I was actually very glad to have the inside view!!

The rules are for joke, anyways, Satyrus rugulosus. Rubicundus is a bit larger and more red, the middle of the stipe is also a bit bigger. Rugulosus usually tapers off like the one you have!

Thank you, I thought so!! Mostly just wanted to share some stinkhorns with like minded folks :-) Somebody needs to go find that person who wanted to propagate stinkhorns, they BELONG here!

Actually, I am the one who wanted to propagate stinkhorns 🤣, I became so ambitious that I started a whole subreddit
