Great. We will be out there next week to have a good look at the plant and to remove it. Thanks Mike.

Thanks for the identification @Heinol I’ve looked back through my previous sightings and am fairly certain that this Common Prettymouth is the same one recorded in sighting 4680226 on 6th June 2025, almost ten months ago, based on debris embedded in the surrounding embankment. The puffball has grown slightly in size since that first sighting and shows minimal deterioration and physical damage despite its location and the environment it has been subjected to high up at Tidbinbilla Nature Reserve. I had no idea that this type of puffball is so rugged and takes so long to mature.

Perhaps a Laccaria but unfortunately there's no view of the underside.

Unfortunately out of focus - but I can't see the split (or parallel) gills that Schizophyllum has.
