Notes

Phylogenetics: The monophyly of Ariocarpus was repeatedly confirmed (Butterworth & al. 2002; Bárcenas & al. 2011; Hérnandez-Hérnandez & al. 2011; Vázquez-Sánchez & al. 2013).A

Taxon standing

Category B. The genus is monophyletic based on phylogenetic studies that support the clade based on a sufficiently dense or even complete sampling, or support a monotypic genus as a distinct lineage, but do not provide a new taxonomic treatment at the species level. In many cases, older classical taxonomic synopses or a monographic treatment exist for these genera providing a reliable assessment of the species included.
