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.

taxonomic status
Presence requires confirmation. Mosaic scales are a common environmentally induced condition in several Calvatia species. L. sinclairii may be a separate indigenous species. The type needs micro-examination to confirm smooth spores and capillitial slits. If ornamented then see C. sp. 'retis' [JAC]
