Descriptions
Calvatia gigantea (Batsch) Lloyd 1904
These three cosmopolitan species of puffballs [Calvatia caelata, C. gigantea and C. lilacina] are recorded by Arnold and Brien (1961) as causing "fairy rings" on greens and fairways in golf courses in New Zealand; they are of minor importance for they are responsible for uneven growth. They are common in pastures throughout New Zealand.
