Something that looks an awful lot like Omphalotus nidiformis, known as the Ghost Fungus. If that’s the case, I am very disappointed that I didn’t return at night, because this species is bioluminescent. The effect produced by it upon the traveller, when on a dark night he comes suddenly upon it glowing in the woods, is startling; for to a person unacquainted with this phenomenon the pale, livid, and deadly light emanating from it conveys to him an impression of something supernatural, and often causes no little degree of terror in weak minds or in those willing to believe in supernatural agencies.-Mordecai Cubitt Cooke -- source link
