Early morel (Verpa bohemica)
Ecology: Probably mycorrhizal and saprobic at different points in its life cycle; found under hardwoods (and sometimes under conifers) in early spring;
Cap: 1-5 cm, nearly conical or irregular to bell shaped; wrinkled longitudinally, occasionally appearing pitted; tan to brown to dark yellow brown; underside pale.
Stem: 6-15 cm long; 0.5-3 cm thick; more or less equal; sometimes tapered upwards or downwards; creamy white, sometimes tinged with brown shades, frequently with darker granules forming belts of color.
Flesh: Nearly nonexistent to loosely stuffed, usually with wispy fibers (like cotton candy) in the stem.
Taste: Not distinctive; odor not distinctive.

Very nice photo, I love morels ! Unfortunately I no longer find any of them in Alsace, and I'm glad I can see them on photos if I can't see them in real. I like your photo very much. Good details and textures on the mushroom, nice composition and great natural colors. Well done !
Valérie.
