Lithops

Post by tacrolimus »

Good morning everyone.

If possible, I would like to ask for some help to identify this Lithops.
I tried myself to compare mine with dozens images on the web, but without success.

Could you help me?
Thanks for any comments

probably easier to tell when the little ones become adults, but by far the most common one around is L karasmontana, and your seems like an ok fit for that.

Hi.
I'm more incline to believe this is a dinteri of some sort rather than a karasmontana, but likely you're more knowledgeable than me about lithops.
Thanks for your reply.

L. dinteri is a good possibility, but just to add to the confusion, the first thing I thought when I saw it was L. dorotheae. However, yours has more clear area than the typical L. dorotheae so I'm starting to agree with your L. dinteri ID. L. karasmontana cannot be ruled out by me either (though I think it is the least likely choice) as there is a form somewhat like that.
