Elevation: 1100-2000 m

Distribution

Ariz., N.Mex., Mexico (Chihuahua, Sonora).

Discussion

In rocky habitats near the Mexican border, populations of Mammillaria wrightii var. wilcoxii tend to have more radial spines and smaller flowers than elsewhere and have been segregated as M. meridiorosei.

Almost half of the published descriptions and illustrations purporting to represent variety wilcoxii are misidentifications of Mammillaria viridiflora.
