    Ariocarpus trigonus
    (now = Ariocarpus retusus)




    Growing with an Astrophytum asterias population in Tamaulipas, Mexico.
    We would call this a retusus but as the two species have been merged its probably a moot point.





    Specimen in private collection in Tamaulipas, Mexico.





    Image below was taken from our photo archives.





    Other Ariocarpus species that were encountered in the field:

    Ariocarpus fissuratus

    Ariocarpus kotschoubeyanus
