Taxonomic Comments
Flora of North America Editorial Committee (2003) does not recognize Echinocereus arizonicus ssp. nigrihorridispinus or Echinocereus santaritensis but mentions these taxa with the comment "Echinocereus arizonicus subsp. nigrihorridispinus superficially resembles the partially sympatric, synoecious tetraploid recently named E. santaritensis W. Blum & Rutow (a hermaphroditic geographic race of E. coccineus), which has much longer hairs on the flowers, a narrower flower tube, and relatively slender spines."
