|discussion=<p>The distinctiveness of Glandulicactus uncinatus var. wrightii was long obscured by misidentifications based on questionable differences in tepal shape. Glandulicactus uncinatus var. uncinatus has green fruits and is endemic in and around San Luis Potosí, Mexico south of var. wrightii; perhaps it is more similar to G. mathssonii (Berge ex K. Schumann) D. Ferguson from even farther south (Guanajuato).</p>
