Lobivia

Former genus of cacti

Summary

Former genus of cacti

Lobivia is a formerly recognized genus of cacti native to South America from Bolivia, Peru to northwestern Argentina and Northern Chile. , it was considered by Plants of the World Online to be a synonym of the genus Echinopsis.

Taxonomy

The genus Lobivia was established by Nathaniel Lord Britton and Joseph Nelson Rose in 1922. Its status as an independent genus has varied. In the CITES Cactaceae Checklists prior to 2016, it was treated as a synonym of Echinopsis. In the 3rd edition of 2016, it was restored as an independent genus based on a 2012 phylogenetic study. A major 2025 classification of the family Cactaceae returned Lobivia to a synonym of Echinopsis, a view accepted by Plants of the World Online .
