Aylostera deminuta, synonym Rebutia deminuta, is a species of flowering plant in the family Cactaceae, native to Bolivia and northwest Argentina.[1]

Taxonomy

[edit]

Aylostera deminuta was first described by Frédéric Weber in 1904 as Echinopsis deminuta.[2] In 1923, Britton and Rose transferred it to the genus Rebutia as Rebutia deminuta, and in 1936, Curt Backeberg transferred it to Aylostera.[1] Aylostera was generally sunk into Rebutia until phylogenetic studies from 2011 onwards led to Rebutia being split up, and the placement of the species in Aylostera was restored.[3][4] A 2016 molecular phylogenetic study of the genus proposed a very broad circumscription of Aylostera deminuta, reducing many species that are accepted by Plants of the World Online as of December 2024 to synonyms of Aylostera deminuta, including:[4]
