Identidad taxonómica
- Scientific name
- Echinocereus cinerascens var. tulensis (Bravo) N.P.Taylor
- Canonical name: The scientific name without its authorship or date, for example Zea mays instead of Zea mays L.
- Echinocereus cinerascens tulensis
- Authorship: The author or authors credited with publishing the scientific name. It is written after the name, sometimes with the year, for example L. (Linnaeus) in Zea mays L. An author in parentheses first published the name in another genus or rank.
- (Bravo) N.P.Taylor
- Kingdom: One of the broadest ranks of biological classification. It groups organisms that share very basic features, for example plants (Plantae), animals (Animalia) or fungi (Fungi).
- Plantae
- Phylum: Rank below kingdom that groups organisms with a shared general body plan, for example chordates (Chordata), arthropods (Arthropoda) or vascular plants (Tracheophyta). In botany the same rank is also called division.
- Tracheophyta
- Class: Rank below phylum, for example mammals (Mammalia), birds (Aves), insects (Insecta) or monocot plants such as grasses and orchids (Liliopsida).
- Magnoliopsida
- Order: Rank below class that groups related families, for example grasses and their relatives (Poales) or bats (Chiroptera).
- Caryophyllales
- Family: Rank below order that groups related genera. Family names usually end in -aceae in botany (for example Poaceae, the grass family) and in -idae in zoology (for example Felidae, the cat family).
- Cactaceae
- Genus: Rank that groups closely related species. Its name is the first word of a species' scientific name and starts with a capital letter, for example Zea in Zea mays.
- Echinocereus
- Specific epithet: The second word of a species' scientific name. On its own it does not name the species: it always goes with the genus, for example mays in Zea mays.
- cinerascens
- Taxonomic rank: The level a name occupies in the hierarchy of biological classification, such as kingdom, family, genus, species or subspecies.
- variety
- Taxonomic status: Whether the taxonomic catalogue the record comes from currently accepts this name for the organism, or treats it as a synonym of another accepted name or as doubtful.
- synonym
Photos and conservation status
This record is not a species with its own taxon, so it shows neither photos nor a Red List category, not even those of its reference species.
