Notes

Monotypic, only recently described genus of columnar cacti from the Montane Dry Forest of Bolivia. So far, it has not been sampled in any published phylogenetic analysis; unpublished sequence data of Schlumpberger & al. confirm that it is indeed a separate lineage.A

Taxon standing

Category E. No assessment of monophyly has yet been possible, because only a few species were sampled or no phylogenetic study has been conducted so far.
