Re: December Cactus World
The URL on p.292 for David Hunt's CITES Cactaceae checklist 3rd Edition (2016) does not work, but try this:
https://www.kew.org/sites/default/files ... 170629.pdf
It contains long lists of cactus names, without justifications or any images.
So Chamaecereus silvestrii makes a comeback with three other species accepted in the genus!
Best wishes,
Derek Tribble

Re: December Cactus World
It does and it doesn't. Chamaecereus silvestrii is in bold italic whereas Echinopsis chamaecereus is in bold. In other words, the latter is accepted with the former a recognised alternative (see p11). It's a messy solution which he uses in quite a few places.Apicra wrote:So Chamaecereus silvestrii makes a comeback with three other species accepted in the genus!
