Rebutia identification help

Post by AWILTSHIRE »

Hi

I wonder if someone would be able to help me identify the species of Rebutia in the attached photos (labelled Rebutia 1 and Rebutia 2).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best
Andrew

Tricky one. I don't think its A. brunescens, and it doesn't look quite right for A. kupperiana. Other dark bodied plants like A. albiareolata and A. tamboensis tend to have quite white areoles. I think about the best shot is "form of A. fiebrigii" which in a broad sense includes many of the other names anyway.

Let's see what Paul thinks.
