Description
The ssp. wrobelianus differs minimally from ssp. horripilus for its almost white radials and for the darker brow to black central spine (versus tan to brownish spines), and for the little smaller flower. It is a clustering species (rarely solitary) that branches profusely from the base and thereby forming large groups up to 30 cm in diameter.
