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[update] to synonyms of Aylostera deminuta, including:[4]
- Aylostera albiflora (F.Ritter & Buining) Backeb.
- Aylostera fiebrigii (Gürke) Backeb.
- Aylostera flavistyla (F.Ritter) Mosti & Papini
- Aylostera fusca (F.Ritter) Mosti & Papini
- Aylostera heliosa (Rausch) Mosti & Papini
- Aylostera hoffmannii (Diers & Rausch) Mosti & Papini
- Aylostera kupperiana (Boed.) Backeb.
- Aylostera mandingaensis R.Wahl & Jucker
- Aylostera muscula (F.Ritter & Thiele) Backeb.
- Aylostera narvaecensis Cárdenas
- Aylostera perplexa (Donald) Mosti & Papini
- Aylostera pseudominuscula (Speg.) Speg.
- Aylostera pulvinosa (F.Ritter & Buining) Mosti & Papini
- Aylostera spinosissima (Backeb.) Backeb.
