Study description
General: Vernal morel fruiting on calcareous soils under both conifers and deciduous trees, with a subcylindrical, slightly pointed pileus, irregular pale grey to greyish-brown pits, and a cream-white stipe covered with fine mealy granules.
Asci: Cylindrical, 8-spored, uniseriate, 250-310 x 18-22 µm, inamyloid in Melzer's reagent.
Paraphyses: Filiform to cylindrical, shorter than asci, 4-8 µm wide, apices swollen to 9-12 µm.
Ascospores: Ellipsoid, smooth, hyaline, thin-walled, 23-30 x 14-18 µm, homogeneous internally without visible contents.
Herbarium voucher: JTP2465/25.
