Synopsis
Excerpt from Bulletin of the Southern California Academy of Sciences, Vol. 34 of 1: January-April, 1935
This new cactus is found outside the reported range of O. Erinacea Engelmann which is commonly given as the Mohave Desert and eastward. This new variety is found on the Hanks and foothills of Santa Rosa Mountain in Riverside County. There is considerable variation in the new form in the form and coloration of the joints, the color of the flower, and the length and abundance of spines. It is marked particularly by the absence or shortness of spines on the lower half of the joints.
