I do not know how many species there are but bolbitis has a tendency to remain 'dormant' for a period of time when introduced to a new environment. Also the amount of light available and temperature affects the plant greatly, mine in a low light tank grows tall, whereas the others in a high light tank grows like a shrub, dense and short.
Boths pictures above despict the same plant, the dark green picture tells of a healthy bolbitis specimen.
