Echinopsis sucrensis

A small Bolivian cactus described by Cárdenas in 1963, also known as Lobivia sucrensis, from the dry Andean valleys around Sucre. GBIF has no usable wild records, so these conditions follow the climate typical of Bolivian highland Lobivia.

Where it grows wild

Presumably rocky slopes in dry inter-Andean valleys of Chuquisaca, like related Lobivia; habitat not documented here.

Not measured; Lobivia around Sucre typically grow at roughly 2,500–3,200 m.
