Morchella ulmaria is a species of fungus in the family Morchellaceae. It was described as new to science in 2012 by Philippe Clowez.[2] Later in the same year, Michael Kuo and colleagues described Morchella cryptica, which is a junior synonym of M. ulmaria.[1] The species occurs in the forests of Midwestern North America, often associated with white ash (Fraxinus americana), the American tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera) or species of maple or elm.[1][3] It is closely related to M. castanea and 2 unnamed species from Asia.[1]

The range of M. ulmaria overlaps with M. americana, which cannot be reliably distinguished from M. ulmaria without DNA sampling.[3]
