Umbagong Fungi Project: Bovista Species 3 at Umbagong. This is a different Bovista species from the one usually seen. Its coloring is a rich red-brown rather than the usual dull grey-brown. The puffballs were also generally larger. It was found in a cluster under native trees / shrubs. The younger ones resembled miniature bread rolls.
