Horak, E. 1971: A contribution towards the revision of the Agaricales (Fungi) from New Zealand. New Zealand Journal of Botany 9(3): 403-462.

Collybia velutipes (Curtis) P. Kumm. 1871

Most mycologists would identify this material (COLENSO b 968) as conspecific with the true F. velutipes which grows throughout the northern hemisphere. From our observations we hesitate to consider F. velutipes as an introduced fungus in New Zealand and regard the New Zealand form as a distinct variety.
Massee, G.E. 1899: The fungus flora of New Zealand. Transactions and Proceedings of the New Zealand Institute 31: 282–349.

Collybia velutipes (Curtis) P. Kumm. 1871

Pileus convex, then expanding until almost plane, sometimes with an indication of an umbo, smooth, even, very viscid, bright-yellow, disc tawny, or sometimes altogether yellowish-brown, 3-8 cm. across; flesh thickish at the disc, becoming very thin towards the margin, tinged yellow; gills adnexed, rather distant, ventricose, cut out behind, 4-6 mm. broad, pale opaque-yellow, margin entire; spores elliptical, 7 x 3-3.5 µ; stem 5-10 cm. long, 6-8 mm. thick, almost equal, narrowed below into a rooting base, apex yellowish, then orange-brown, becoming darker downwards, minutely velvety, stuffed.
Dannevirke, New Zealand. Australia, Europe, Siberia, United States.
On trunks, logs, &c.
Readily distinguished by the bright-yellow viscid pileus and the dark minutely velvety stem. Tufted. One of the few species of the Agaricini capable of growing in very cold weather, and in Britain may often be seen quite vigorous after having experienced 6° of frost for several nights in succession.
Stevenson, G. 1964: The Agaricales of New Zealand: V. Kew Bulletin 19(1): 1-59.

Flammulina velutipes (Curtis) P. Karst. 1891

This common saprophyte, which is also occasionally a mild parasite, occurs fairly commonly on both exotic and indigenous fallen or standing timber. On Pinus pilei are often dwarfed, though they occur in dense clusters. (Lange (1936)).
