Stinkmeat Posted January 22, 2009 Howdy, I found this little tiger at a cacti nursery in central NSW. It was labeled as a T. Bridgesii, but i don't think it is. I already did some searching in the SAB IDs. The only thing similar that I could find was Knuthianus and Cuscoensis. IDs or confirmation appreciated.

0 ballzac Posted January 22, 2009 Yeah, I'd call it cuzcoensis. It's definitely not bridgesii! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 egad Posted January 23, 2009 Agreed! Definitely cuzcoensis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 bit Posted January 23, 2009 Too blue to be what I'd call Cuzcoensis. I'd call it KK242/Cuzco, but the blue puts me off. It has the blue of a bridge, and the spines of what I would imagine bridge+kk242 cross would look like. My conclusion = beautiful hybrid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 ballzac Posted January 23, 2009 I've seen many cuzcoensis that are quite blue, I doubt they're all hybrids. If anything, I would guess that the bluer ones have peruvianus genetics in them, not bridgesii. I suspect, however, that the blue ones and the green ones are just variations of cuzcoensis. I could very easily be wrong though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Stinkmeat Posted January 26, 2009 (edited) Thanks for the input, I looked up the ones that were mentioned. I think it's most similar to a KK242. Still not 100% certain though. This is the main T. Peruvianus KK242 I am judging from though. Thanks Stink Edited January 26, 2009 by Stinkmeat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
