Morchella ulmaria is a species of fungus in the family Morchellaceae. It was described as new to science in 2012 by Philippe Clowez. [2] Later in the same year, Michael Kuo and colleagues described Morchella cryptica, which is a junior synonym of M. ulmaria. [1] The species occurs in the forests of Midwestern North America, often associated with white ash ( Fraxinus americana), the American tulip tree ( Liriodendron tulipifera) or species of maple or elm. [1] [3] It is closely related to M. castanea and 2 unnamed species from Asia. [1]
The range of M. ulmaria overlaps with M. americana, which cannot be reliably distinguished from M. ulmaria without DNA sampling. [3]
