Re: Turbinicarpus viereckii
Probably quite a while: Vázquez-Sánchez et al. had it within their concept of Turbinicarpus even after Rapicactus and Kadenicarpus are removed. https://academic.oup.com/botlinnean/art ... login=true It looks like Ariocarpus might be the oldest genus in that part of the tree if anybody wanted to classify these plants into fewer, larger genera.
