''Onygena equina'', commonly known as the horn stalkball, is a species of fungus in the family Onygenaceae. The fungus grows on putrefying hooves and horns, and can digest the keratin in those substrates. Fruit bodies are small and white, with thick stipes supporting a "head" shaped like a flattened sphere. The skin, or peridium, of the head appears powdery or like a white crust, and breaks open in maturity, falling off in irregular pieces to expose the pale reddish-brown powdery spores within. The fungus is known from Europe and North America. ==Taxonomy==
The species was first described by Carl Ludwig von Willdenow as ''Lycoperdon equinum'' in 1787. Christian Hendrik Persoon transferred it to the genus ''Onygena'' in 1800, giving it the name by which it is known today.〔 The specific epithet ''equina'' is the Latin word for "horse". The common name for the fungus is "horn stalkball".〔
