double finger / devil's finger




Another uncommon species was the devil’s fingers fungus found in the Malvern hills on the Herefordshire-Worcestershire border. This fungus looks like a sea creature with striking pink-purple “tentacles” covered in stinking goo. The stench attracts insects to the tentacles where the spores lie, and which are picked up and spread by the insects. The fungus originally came from Australia and New Zealand and appeared in France in 1914, possibly carried in military equipment during the first world war; it was first discovered in England in 1946.
