Helvella macropus is a species of fungus in the family Helvellaceae of the order Pezizales. Ascocarps are found in summer and autumn in woodland, usually (though not exclusively) associated with broad-leaved trees. The slender stem, up to 5 centimeters high, supports a cup shaped cap, the whole fruiting body being pale grey or brown, the inner (hymenial) surface of the cup usually being darker.[1][2] It is inedible.[3]

Distribution

This species has a wide distribution in the northern hemisphere, having been recorded in Europe, North and Central America and also in China,[4] and Japan.[5]
