Eriosyce crispa ssp. atroviridis v. carrizalensis (E. eriosyzoides ssp. atroviridis NCL) with a purpelish black body color, more ribs and longer spines than the v. huascensis. http://www.cactiguide.com/forum/userpix/2513_180909_NC_carrizalensis_HeHu_1.jpg Too bad I don´t have a kunzei v. transitensi...

And crispa ssp. crispa (Katt.).
It has thin, wavy, interlacing black spines

This is another crispa (Kattermann)species.
E. crispa ssp. atroviridis v. huascensis.
With short spines and 1 central spine up to 15 mm long. Body is described as subglobular.

Here is a picture of Eriosyce crispa ssp. atroviridis v. atroviridis FK 65-77(Kattermann)or E. eriosycoides ssp. atroviridis (New Cactus Lexicon).

Thanks for the wellcome guys

Hi Christer
I`m new to the forum. You seem to like eriosyce (as I do). Did you already see the new pictures by Juan Acosta and Florencia Signoret on cactus horridus, their flick album ? They show their grafted plants in their greenhouse. You might like that too.

The first one looks like Eriosyce heinrichiana The second one could be pygmaea (or calderana as RM Ferryman would say). It has the flower of E. taltalensis v. pygmaea and seems to have been fed quite well. http://www.cactiguide.com/forum/userpix/2513_Eriosyce_taltalensis_ssp_pilispina_E_pilispina_FK...
