features

Macroscopic features

Morchella tibetica forms individual, in hat and stem structured fruit bodies (complex Apothecia ). The hat is bell-shaped or conical and becomes 3 to 4.5 cm long and 2 to 3 cm wide. The fruit layer is divided into pits by ribs and is orange to olive in color. The orange-brown receptacle is very little grainy-warty, club-like and somewhat hollow. It is 7 to 10 cm long and 1.5 to 2.2 cm wide. The smell is weak and the taste is pleasant.

Microscopic features

The spores are narrow, elliptical, smooth and translucent ( hyaline ). They measure 28 to 33 to 16 to 20 micrometers .

ecology

Morchella tibetica grows individually in the deciduous forest between bushes.

distribution

In the first description of Morchella tibetica Tibet was given as the distribution area with a site in the Mêdog district at 1700 m.

Systematics and taxonomy

Morchella tibetica was first described by M. Zang in 1987 . The systematic position within the genus is still unclear, however, as no suitable DNA sequences have been obtained so far.

meaning

Morchella tibetica is characterized by its unique taste and is used as an edible mushroom.
