A species of Scalycaps.
Pholiota subvelutina is predominantly found on woody substrates, showing a particular affinity for rotting logs and tree bases. It can be identified by its tacky, reddish-brown cap and the way it grows in groups, typically emerging during colder periods. The mushroom's gills begin light in color and gradually darken as spores mature, while its stem shares a similar hue and possesses a fuzzy feel.
