A new species of Borzicactus, B. hoxeyi, is described. First observed in 2010, this small inconspicuous species, presently only known with certainty from the Morro de Sama on the arid southern Peruvian coast is distinct from all other members of the genus because of its unique flower morphology. It is also geographically disjunct from other Borzicactus species and it extends the range of the genus southwards by approximately 100km.
