Name

Cumulopuntia unguispina (Backeb.) F.Ritter ex A.Pauca & Quip., Darwiniana n.s., 8(1): 365. (2020)

Note: CACO (2021) and Hunt (2016) placed this name in synonymy with Cumulopuntia sphaerica (C.F.Först.) E.F.Anderson, Cact. Succ. J. (Los Angeles) 71(6): 324. (1999) using the invalid Cumulopuntia unguispina F.Ritter (1981), but it is now validly resurrected by Pauca-Tanco & Quipuscoa (2020). The synonyms below are transferred to this combination.
