Yeah trig is right I think it's the kk242 peruvianus/T.cuzcoensis i'm not sure of the correct name as gets debated a bit. Still it's the same plant and a nice one too Smile

nice tricho mate, looks nasty though! might need to borrow some chain mail gloves when it comes time to replant it Laughing

It looks to me to be one of the very varied forms of E. peruviana. Probably not kk242, Karell Knize names are hopeless. The numbers do not signify a species, they are his personal numbers, they tell him where he found the plants. yes plants not plant, numerous different species can be given the same kk number.
