Option 1

 * Article title
 * Puffball
 * Article Evaluation
 * Needs information on ecological role and habitat and distribution.
 * Article is start class with mid importance. In the talk page there is discussion about the level of scientific language used. A strength of the article is that it has a full list of puffball species. I would recommend adding more information on its ecological role. Has many good picture examples, with majority having name of species as a caption. lead is overly detailed and not concise. Paragraphs in the lead could be their own section or be moved to the identification section. I would recommend some reorganization of the content. Links work and language is neutral.

 * Article title
 * Sparassis


 * Article Evaluation
 * needs better organization. could include sections on identification and medicinal use. Needs information on ecological role and habitat and distribution. less conversational language and not neutral "very tasty." References are not balanced, too much info on medical info and not the ecology of the mushroom. Could include more pictures. Lead is very concise. Sentences about identification need to be more concise.
