supposedly the "dog stinkhorn" has a close relative called the "devil's dipstick."

"It's not only their shape, it's also the fact that they've got a hole at the end which oozes a liquid containing the spores. It's easy to smell it from 40 or 50 feet away, and flies just love it - presumably this is how it disperses the spores. "
"Other stinkhorns have Latin names Phallus impudicus and Geastrum fornicatum, so you get the idea!"

good thing they're not edible. imagine getting that on a pizza?

apparently these Latin people also had the same idea as many when naming the thing.
