Morchella casteneae is a species of fungus in the family Morchellaceae ( Ascomycota). It was described as new to science in a 2012 study by Clowez and appears to be confined to the Iberian peninsula. [2] A subsequent phylogenetic and nomenclatural study by Richard and colleagues has confirmed M. castaneae as a distinct species and showed the taxa Morchella brunneorosea and Morchella brunneorosea var. sordida to be synonymous.
