The Morchella elata

''Morchella elata'' is a species of fungus in the family Morchellaceae native to Europe. It is one of many related species commonly known as the black morel, and until 2012 the name ''M. elata'' was broadly applied to black morels in North America as well. ''M. elata'' is a popular edible fungus and is sought by many mushroom hunters.
