Morchella disparilis is a fungus in the family Morchellaceae (division Ascomycota). It was described as new to science in 2016 by Loizides and colleagues, and appears to be confined to the Mediterranean Basin, where it grows under strawberry trees (Arbutus andrachne) and cypress trees (Cupressus sempervirens).

The most striking feature of this species, is apparently the exceptionally deep sinus (the bent at the attachment of the cap with the stem), intermediate in depth between half-free morels of the Morchella semilibera clade, and typical Distantes species.
