I have this as 'Aylostera sp. nova Heger & Alber, Incahuasi, Bolivia' from ADBLPS seed, unfortunately without field number (other than the collectors) but with what I think is a Uhlig catalogue number (U4715). It has nice, dark cherry red flowers which my phone camera was unable to capture properly and short, bristly spines. Anyone want to suggest a species name?
For reference, the plants are in a 2.5" square pot.

Re: Aylostera ID
I posted a pic of mine last month viewtopic.php?f=1&t=171497&p=311261#p311261 My best guess was supthutiana, though that wasn't very well researched.

Re: Aylostera ID
Beautiful colour
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

Re: Aylostera ID
As Phil says, the flower is like supthutiana, but I think it is perhaps as the label says, a new species, as the body is pretty different.

Re: Aylostera ID
I missed that thread... I'll update my label to 'aff. supthutiana' with the understanding that it may turn out to be something else eventually.Phil_SK wrote: ↑Tue Jun 22, 2021 5:43 am I posted a pic of mine last month viewtopic.php?f=1&t=171497&p=311261#p311261 My best guess was supthutiana, though that wasn't very well researched.
