Calvatia craniiformis, commonly known as the brain puffball or the skull-shaped puffball, is a species of puffball fungus in the family Agaricaceae. It is found in Asia, Australia, and North America, where it grows on the ground in open woods. Its name, derived from the same Latin root as cranium, alludes to its resemblance to an animal's brain. The skull-shaped fruit body is 8–20 cm (3–8 in) broad by 6–20 cm (2–8 in) tall and white to tan. Initially smooth, the skin (peridium) develops wrinkles and folds as it matures, cracking and flaking with age. The peridium eventually sloughs away, exposing a powdery yellow-brown to greenish-yellow spore mass (the gleba). The puffball is edible when the gleba is still white and firm, before it matures to become yellow-brown and powdery. Mature specim

  • La Vesse-de-loup crâniforme (Calvatia craniiformis ou Calvatia craniformis) est une espèce de vesses-de-loup de la famille des Agaricaceae. Elle pousse en Asie, en Australie et en Amérique du Nord, où elle croît sur le sol dans les forêts clairsemées. L'épithète de son nom fait allusion à la ressemblance de ce champignon avec le cerveau d'un animal. Le sporophore crâniforme, de couleur blanche à havane, mesure de 8 à 20 cm de large sur 6 à 20 de hauteur. D'abord lisse, la peau se ride, se fissure et s'écaille avec le temps. Elle finit par tomber pour exposer une gleba friable variant du jaune brunâtre au jaune olivâtre. Cette vesse-de-loup est comestible lorsque la gleba est encore ferme et blanche, avant qu'elle ne devienne friable et jaune brunâtre. Le champignon mûr sert d'hémostatique (fr)
