Name
Estevesia P.J.Braun, Kakteen And. Sukk. 60(3): 64 (63-70; figs.) (2009)
Note: Estevesia P.J. Braun has not been included in any molecular study so far. It was provisionally placed in the synonymy of Harrisia by Nyffeler & Eggli (2010). The status of Estevesia was revisited by Franck (2016), stating: "Estevesia P.J. Braun had been erroneously synonymized with Harrisia (Nyffeler & Eggli 2010; Hernández-Ledesma et al. 2015), but Estevesia is likely more related to Cereus s. str. and Monvillea Britton & Rose." However, this still needs to be confirmed by a phylogenetic study. (CACO, 2021). This genus should be redirected to Cereus and does not belong in this tribe.
