Basket Fungi.
Ileodictyon cibarium is a saprobic species of fungus in the family Phallaceae. It is found in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, where it commonly known as the basket fungus or the white basket fungus, alluding to the fruit bodies that are shaped somewhat like a round or oval ball with interlaced or latticed branches. While the immature volvae are edible, the mature fruit body is foul-smelling and covered with a slime layer containing spores on the inner surfaces. Original public domain image from Flickr
