Description
Morchella, the true morels, is a genus of edible mushrooms closely related to anatomically simpler cup fungi. These distinctive mushrooms appear honeycomb-like in that the upper portion is composed of a network of ridges with pits between them.
The ascocarps are prized by gourmet cooks, particularly for French cuisine. Commercial value aside, morels are hunted by thousands of people every year simply for their taste and the joy of the hunt.

Hey! I remembered the name of this mushroom, it's name is, Morel. An edible mushroom with a brownish, spongelike cap.

Thanks Luke. I'm not sure what it's called either. Anyone who views this mushroom knows the name, please let me know. Thanks.
