Looks to be Tillandsia tectorum. Based on the squatter form, location, and relative encounterability makes me think it's the Ecuadorian variety (the other variety being Peruvian), but the lack of really fuzzy trichomes make me question this a bit. Might just be from outdoor conditions.
A cactus and succulent collector who especially likes Ariocarpus. …Though I have a bit of everything! Want some pictures? See my flickr! I also do art and such.
