Comments

Ariocarpus kotschoubeyanus albiflorus has been described as a variety because of the white flower. However, as these illustrations show pink flowering plants, indistinguishable from those of the Coahuila populations also occur. The plants occur in large numbers, but the land is flat and suitable for development so this interesting site could easily become obliterated in the future.
