  1. Gyromitra

    Gyromitra is a genus of ascomycete mushrooms found in the northern hemisphere. The most famous member is the controversial false morel. The genus contains about 18 species. Analysis of the ribosomal DNA of many of the Pezizales showed the genus Gyromitra to be most closely related to the genus Discina, and also Pseudorhizina, Hydnotrya, and only distantly related to Helvella. Thus the four genera are now included in the family Discinaceae. Gyromitra comes from gyro meaning convoluted and mitra meaning turban. In spite of the superficial similarity, it is unrelated to the video game Gyromite.
