Discussion

Echinomastus johnsonii varies geographically in both flower and spine color. The yellow-flowered plants have been named E. johnsonii var. lutescens. The pink-flowered plants occur in separate populations, as far as is known, to the north of the yellow-flowered plants, but the interface between the two forms is poorly understood.
