This mushroom is known as "Octopus Stinkhorn" or "Devil's Fingers". In Latin is called "danthurus archeri".

These mushrooms are all over the place in recent years. I think that it is imported and an invasive species. It is not on this list, though: http://www.mop.gov.si/delovna_podrocja/narava/invazivne_tujerodne_vrste_rastlin_in_zivali/rastline_invazivne_tujerodne_vrste/

Great photo, by the way :)

Thank you :)
This mushroom originates from Australia. It came to Europe during first world war.
It was on australian (or New Zeland) soldiers shoes.
