A truffle weighing 1.2kg (2.6lb) has sold for 95,000 euros ($112,000; £64,000) at an international charity auction in Italy.
An anonymous buyer - reportedly from Hong Kong - purchased the white truffle via satellite link-up.
A white truffle is a very rare type of mushroom that grows underground.
A 850g (1.9lb) white truffle bought for £28,000 ($50,000; 42,000 euros) last year was then said to be the world's most expensive.
