I am not sure what this is. I am sure that I don't want to eat it. If you try eating it, I will watch to see if you turn purple and grow a third eye. Part of me thinks it might be a futuristic high rise condo for ants or some kind of artificial insemination device for sheep.
Let's open this one up to the public. Can you identify this fungus? If so, let the rest of us know what it is. Until it has been identified, I am going to steer clear.

The name in latin is Coprinus comatus.
It is good to eat at younng age, but as soon as it starts to be black in the rim of the hat it is not good any more.
