At a certain stage of ripening, the “shell” breaks and an outward appearance appears that looks like a leg covered with a mucous hat.Its surface is as if dotted with yellow spores, emitting a sharp putrefactive odor that attracts insects within a radius of 50 meters. Having escaped to freedom, the mushroom begins to very quickly increase in size.
