Earth Star. (Geastrum) - a photo on Flickriver

            In late summer and early autumn, clusters of brown puffball-like fungi begin to transform themselves into tiny “stars” as the wind blows through the woods. These “stars” on the ground are generally called earthstar fungi.
The most commonly seen earthstars are rounded earthstar, collared earthstar, and barometer earthstar. Among them, rounded earthstar and collared earthstar belong to Geastrum genus while barometer earthstar is under Astraeus genus. Unlike most fungi that thrive in damp ground, the earthstar fungi grow in sandy, dry soils.
