Velleia glabrata (or Pee the bed) is an annual herb in the family Goodeniaceae,[3] which is native to all mainland states and territories of Australia with the exception of Victoria.[4] It grows on sand and clay, flowering from June to October.[3]

The Australian Plant Name Index indicates that the species was first described as Velleia glabrata by Carolin in 1967.[1][2] However, FloraBase gives 1968 as the date of publication by Carolin, but cites the same publication.[3] (There are no synonyms.[1][5])
