This is the beautiful Phallus indusiatus, also known as the Bamboo Fungus or long netted stinkhorn but I prefer one of its other common names The Veiled Lady. A close relative to this that grows the volcanic slopes in Hawaii looks identical apart from the head which is bright orange instead of the brown colour you see here. It is said that the fetid odour of the orange veiled lady causes spontaneous orgasms in women.
