Mammillaria micromeris, Engelm. Cylindrical-clavate, 1-6 in. high, covered by white spines: tubercles only ½ line long: spines on the body very short, many serial, successively shorter toward the center, not pungent; in the flowering area the upper tuft of spines having a clavate deciduous tip: fls. pinkish white, borne at the summit in a dense tuft of wool and spines, directly behind the apex of the tubercle: fr. red, smooth; seed black. Texas. Var. Greggii, Engelm. Larger in all its parts. This species and its variety really do not belong to Mammillaria although they are usually placed here by gardeners. Var. Greggii, which is really specifically distinct from M. micromeris, has been referred to Echinocactus, although superficially it has no resemblance to that genus. Weber constructed for these forms the genus Epithelantha, and this will probably be the best disposition to make of this group. The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
