Flammulina velutipes, commonly known as the velvet foot, wild enoki, velvet stem,[1] or velvet shank,[2][3] is a species of gilled mushroom in the family Physalacriaceae. The species occurs in Europe and North America. Until recently Flammulina velutipes was considered to be conspecific with the Asian Flammulina filiformis, cultivated for food as "enokitake" or "golden needle mushroom", but DNA sequencing has shown that the two are distinct.[4]
