Morchella virginiana O'Donnell & S.A.Rehner (2012) Morchella sceptriformis is a species of fungus in the family Morchellaceae (Ascomycota).

It was described as new to science in a 2012 study by Clowez,[2] and corresponds to phylogenetic lineage Mes-3.

[3] Morchella virginiana, described later in the same year by Kuo and colleagues, is conspecific to this taxon.

[1][4] This putatively endemic North American morel is so far known from North Carolina, South Carolina, Mississippi and Virginia, where it is found under the American tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera).
