can anybody ID my new cactus?

Question

Hey everybody,

My nabour gave me this cutting from her ginormous cactus, I was wondering if anyone knows what it is? My guess is scopulicola, but i am no 100% as the areoles are sunken and the ribs are as fat but a but more defined than my other scops. Could it be a cross perhaps? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks all. TJ.

I'd say scop, judging by the colour and areoles, but I agree something isn't right about it.

T. scopulicola.

I know right, It looks likes as though it may have a little pachanoi in it.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, almost Super Pedro-ish, but the colour and glaucosness is a bit off (spelt that wrong).

I usually go by club shaped base, but that's hard to tell on a division.

It's very old and she has no idea what it is. Its strange i have been a keen trichocereus collector for some time i move into a house and my nabour on the left gives me a bunch of scops and an acient bridgesii (monstrose) as she had to reduce her load when the house owner wanted to move back in, and the the nabour on the right gives me this scopish tricho, i am really starting to believe in the manifestation theory and the laws of attraction. I am really keen to find out if anybody has one or knows much about it. I saw it in flower last summer and the flowers were very much like pachanoi flowers, it was a very beautiful sight wish i got a few snaps.
