Morchella exuberans is a species of fungus in the family Morchellaceae (Ascomycota).

[3] Morchella capitata, described by Kuo and colleagues later in the same year, is a synonym of this taxon.

[4] Morchella exuberans is a fire-associated morel, growing the first or second spring following a forest fire.

It has so far been reported from North America,[4] Turkey,[5] Sweden,[5] China[6] and Cyprus.

[7] Among some of the striking features of this species, are the capitate acroparaphyses on the sterile ridges of its cap, and the chambered stem.
