Certainly a very large species of edible mushroom

 

but...

 

The largest known organism was a fungus of the same species discovered in 1992 in south-west Washington, which stretches over 2.5 sq miles (6.5 sq km).

Biologists have long debated what constitutes an individual organism. The record-breaking A. solidipes clonal colony passes the test based on a definition of being made up of genetically identical cells that can communicate, and that have a common purpose or can at least coordinate themselves.
