0 ☽Ţ ҉ĥϋηϠ₡яღ☯ॐ€ðяئॐ♡Pϟiℓℴϟℴ Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) that is so sexy im a noob but id like to take a guess on only tacaquirensis / taquimbalensis and with it being more heavily armoured than my tacaquirensis subsp' taquimbo... id lean more toward taquimbo.. i mean taquimbalensis but only excluding werder since my german old werdermannianus looks nothing like either of those...here it is with a random bee in mid-flight or idve been tempted to say werdermannianus too - on the basis of what google images thinks are werdermannianus i also bought 2 itty bitty cactlets not long ago that resemble the tips of the cacti in your post ...under the name of werdermannianus and some location data tho... , very chocolatey coloured spines early... mutant and evil genius seem to be the best guys i can think of to ask about these, i hope they see this and help ya - for years ive been googling taquimbo and ending up here reading mutants and eg's work maybe a pm to them could elicit a helpful hand if not so far i gather the best way of finding out if its a werdermannianus is if it flowers at the tip/crown only(from one of EG's post's of backberg pics) Edited June 20, 2014 by ☽Ţ ҉ĥϋηϠ₡яღ☯ॐ€ðяئॐ♡Pϟiℓℴϟℴ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Evil Genius Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) Yes, taquimbalensis/tacaquirensis. They are actually one species ! I think if you would use the old taxonomy, this would be tacaquirensis. But really, it doesn't make aa difference! Edited June 20, 2014 by Evil Genius 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 mutant Posted June 29, 2014 taquimbalensis var. wilka , Trouts got a nice entry about it . Smith said some other names refer to it apart from tacaquirensis.. TH your 'werdermanianus' looks like a a taq/tac with terscheckii spines . lol I know I grew my taq wilka from seeds than came as werdemanianus... And my other taquimbalensis (the non wilka) came from sab as some KK werdemanianus I think my tacaquirensis seedlings , some starting showing a bit of their mature self, and they are looking like actual. .... tacaquirensis / taquimbalensis, non wilka that is.... heheh... Needless to say, the var wilka taq IMO is much much more handsome than the normal one... and is it my impression or it has thicker spines with more swollen bases? I know I have seen ones with much heavier armour and denser areoles ... maybe one of yours TH ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
