Morchella cryptica is a species of fungus in the Morchellaceae family described as new to science in 2012. The species occurs in the forests of Midwestern North America, usually associated with white ash (Fraxinus americana), but sometimes with the American tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera) or species of maple.[1]
The range of M. cryptica overlaps with M. esculentoides, which cannot be reliably distinguished from M. cryptica without DNA sampling.[1]
In 2014, Richard et al. clarified the taxonomic status of this species, retaining the name Morchella ulmaria of Clowez (2012) over M. cryptica.[2][3]
