Notes

Phylogenetics: Harrisia was confirmed as monophyletic by Franck (2012), with a revised infrageneric classification published shortly after (Franck & al. 2013).
Key literature: For a synopsis see Franck (2012); further phylogenetic studies see (Franck & al. 2013a; Franck & al. 2013a,b); monograph by Franck (2016).A

Taxon standing

Category A. The genus is monophyletic based on a complete or very comprehensive phylogenetic study, and a phylogeny-based taxonomic synopsis was published.B,C,D
