Soehrensia angelesiae is a species of cactus.
Soehrensia angelesiae grows shrubby, branches numerously from the base and forms low thickets up to 1 meter high. The ascending, cylindrical, light green shoots are opaque and reach a diameter of 6 to 6.5 centimeters. There are about twelve sharp-edged, low, blunt ribs that are notched. The oval areoles on it are sparsely woolly. Stiff, prickly thorns emerge from them and are enlarged at their base. The individual central spine is up to 2 centimeters long. The twelve marginal spines are arranged in pairs on the sides. The lowest marginal spine is longer than the others. The marginal spines are up to 1.5 centimeters long.
The bell-shaped, tubular white flowers appear near the tips of the shoots. They grow up to 20 centimeters long and have a diameter of 14 centimeters. [2]
Soehrensia angelesiae is widespread in the Argentine department of Guachipas at altitudes of 1400 meters.
The first description as Trichocereus angelesiae by Roberto Kiesling was published in 1931. [3] The specific epithet angelesiae honors Angeles G.
