M. carnea Zucc. ex Pfeiff . , Enum. Cact. 19: 1837. Zucc., Pl. Nov. Monac. 716. 1837.
Stem simple, globose or shortly cylindric; tubercles pyramidal (with milky sap); axils woolly.
Spines usually 4, the lateral shortest 0.6mm,, long, the upper 8-12mm. long, the lower 10-20mm. long, pinkish, tipped black, rigid, straight or somewhat arching.
Flowers. flesh pink or pale rose (15-20mm. long, 12-15mm. in diam.), the perianth segments c i l i a t e ;
stigmas (4-)5(-7), green. (Fr. red, 2-2.5cm. long, the dried perianth not persistent; seeds light brown.)
Mexico: Hidalgo, between Ixmiquilpan and Zimapan. (According to Craig this locality is dubiously correct as all subsequent collections
have been made further south. Craig reports the species from Puebla (Tehuacan), Guerrero (Taxco), Oaxaca and the State of Mexico.)
A species rather readily recognised by its clear pink flowers and angled tubercles.
