Everything about False Morel totally explained
The name
False Morel is given to a number of Ascomycete mushrooms which bear a resemblance to the highly regarded true
morels of the genus
Morchella. It may be applied to several species in the genus
Gyromitra, including:
G. esculenta (beefsteak fungus)
G. infula (elfin saddle)
G. caroliniana
G. gigas (Snow morel)
The name is also sometimes used for mushrooms of the genus
Verpa, including:
V. bohemica
V. conica
The Verpas are also known as early morels or thimble morels.
The edibility of all "False morels" has been recently brought into question. While many people eat them without apparent harm, some people have developed acute toxicity and recent evidence suggests that there may be long-term health risks as well., Eating any "False Morel" isn't recommended, at least until more is known about possible toxins.
