Phallus pygmaeus is a species of stinkhorn mushroom. It was found growing on rotten wood in the State of Pernambuco, Brazil, and first reported in 2003. The fruiting bodies, which are otherwise similar in appearance to the well-known Phallus impudicus, do not typically grow more than 1 cm (0.4 in) long.[1]
