Velleia connata is an erect annual herb in the Goodeniaceae family, and is found in all mainland states and territories of Australia.[4][5] It grows on sandplains and stony hills in Beard's eremaean province.[4] Its flowers are yellow-brown or white-pink and it flowers mainly from February or May to October.[4]

The species was first described as Velleia connata in 1854 by the botanist, Ferdinand von Mueller,[2][1] and the name has not been revised.[1]
