"Gyromitra" is a genus of ascomycete mushrooms found in the northern hemisphere. The most famous member is the controversial false morel "(G. esculenta)". Highly poisonous when raw, it is edible and sought after in Scandinavian countries when cooked.

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.
