Abstract

While total cactus diversity of Uruguay is significantly less than that of the surrounding countries, Uruguay is none the less part of the diversity centre of the Notocactus group of the genus Parodia. Parodia allosiphon is a relatively recently described taxon with a limited distribution in the frontier region of Dept. Rivera (Uruguay) and neighbouring Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil). A recent collection made in Dept. Artigas (Uruguay) significantly extends the distribution range of the taxon. Its conservation status is evaluated as “near-threatened”.
