A number of the Tricho's also carried the parasite Tristerix aphyllus. We'd also seen this earlier in the trip on Eulychnia's...

There were also a number of opuntiods in flower here too. There was considerable variation in the color of the flowers and I was intrigued as to whether it was flower age, or the amount of sun that caused the shift. Some were considerable darker than others.
