Diagnosis Gyromitra persicula and G. leucoxantha are readily distinguished from other Discinaceae species by the scooped out “fishtail” apiculi of the mature ascospores. These two closely related taxa are separable by their size and coloration: G. persicula is small (up to 4.5 cm wide) and has a pinkish buff color, whereas G. leucoxantha is larger (up to 10 cm wide) and has an egg yolk yellow to yellow ochre color.
