Referred and other superfluous names F. acanthodes Britton & Rose, Cact. 3:129, figs. 134137,p1.l5 (1922); N. P. Taylor, Cact. Succ. J. (GB) 41 (4): 91 (1979); Lindsay, Ferocactus 281, 290-308 (1996) (1955 thesis, unpublished at the time).. Although Taylor has referred this species to F. cylindraceus, there is a swell of opinion which favours the retention of this more common, long used epithet, not least by Gottfried Unger in his recent work, who uses it in preference to F. cylindraceus. As indicated in the main text we regard Taylor's argument as soundly based and therefore prefer the use of F. cylindraceus - see under that name. Nigel Taylor has commented in personal communication that the epithet 'acanthodes' "can only be retained in its popular sense if 'conserved' with a new type, but the use of 'cylindraceus' over the past 10 years or more, makes this unlikely to succeed." var. eastwoodiae L.
