Identification 17

Post by elquisco »

According to my poor knowledge, this cactus could be a Parodia rauschii.
I need your opinions.
Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the mistake :oops: ](*,)
Thanks for your comments

This image is so blurry that this could be anything. But the bare top and these green bumps between areoles make me think this can be some Notocactus. Can we see the plant from a distance ?

My suggestion: Parodia erubescens/Notocactus schlosseri.
If your cacti mess in your job just forget about the job.

Your probably getting a bit closer than your camera can focus. Just because you can see an image in the viewfinder does not mean it can focus that close. The closest focus distance for the lens in use is usually in the manual. Move further back from the plant with the camera then crop the picture to the size you want.

I find a 45 deg view oof the top is often more useful than a sideways or and a vertical, top-down view. Although a few different angles is normally helpful.
