Eriocereus (woolly and Cereus; referring to the wool in the axils of the bracts on the ovary). Cactaceae. Usually slender plants, at first erect, but usually afterward clambering and creeping, often forming great clumps and thickets: fls. usually large; ovary covered with more or less enlarged bracts bearing hairs and spines in their axils: fr. red, spiny; flesh white; seeds numerous, black. For cult., see Succulents. See Cereus for descriptions of the following species: Banplandii, Riccob; Cavendishii, Riccob. This is described under Cereus, but probably does not belong to either genus; Martinii, Riccob; platygonus, Riccob; tephracanthus, Riccob; tortuosus, Riccob. J. N. Rose.
