Echinocereus rigidissimus var. rubrispinus or [...] var. rubispinus?

Post by Aiko »

What is the (most) correct name?
Is it Echinocereus rigidissimus var. rubrispinus or Echinocereus rigidissimus var. rubispinus?

A search is not convincing me of a recommended preference of one above the other and / or that one is wrong.
