Browningieae
The Browningieae are a tribe of cacti A cactus (, or less commonly, cactus) is a member of the plant family Cactaceae, a family comprising about 127 genera with some 1750 known species of the order Caryophyllales. The word ''cactus'' derives, through Latin, from the Ancient Greek ... belonging to the Cactoideae subfamily. Description Browningieae are large tree-like or shrubby plants. Their columnar shoots are articulated or not articulated. The ribs are usually heavily spined. The medium to large flowers appearing on the side usually open at night. Their pericarpel has imbricated scales. The areoles have thorns or bristles. The fleshy fruits are not bursting, scaly, thorned or glabrous. The medium-sized to large seeds are often wrinkled.

Armatocereus Procerus
''Armatocereus'' (from Latin ''armatus'', "armed" and ''cereus'', "pliant/soft") is a genus of mostly tree-like cacti from South America (Ecuador and Peru). These species have a conspicuous constriction at the end of the annual growth. The flowers are mostly white, with a more or less spiny ovary. The fruits are mostly spiny. Description ''Armatocereus'' species are columnar cacti, bushlike or treelike, with cylindrical upright branched stems. The stems have 5–12 distinct ribs, and are made up of sections with a narrower "neck" between them, corresponding to annual growth. The large areoles bear strong spines, rarely few or none. The narrow tubular flowers appear at night, and have a spiny ovary and floral tube and white petals (red in '' A. rauhii''). The red or green fruit is large, globular or ovoid, with strong spines that are lost on maturity. It contains large black seeds, ovoid or kidney-shaped. Taxonomy The genus name was first mentioned in print by Curt Backeberg ...

Cactoideae
The Cactoideae are the largest subfamily of the cactus family, Cactaceae. Around 80% of cactus species belong to this subfamily. , the internal classification of the family Cactaceae remained uncertain and subject to change. A classification incorporating many of the insights from the molecular studies was produced by Nyffeler and Eggli in 2010. Various revisions have been published since, e.g. to the tribe Hylocereeae and the tribe Echinocereeae. Classifications remained uncertain . Tribes and genera , the National Center for Biotechnology Information used the division of the subfamily into tribes shown below. Some revisions to the circumscriptions of the tribes are also shown. *Blossfeldieae **''Blossfeldia'' * Browningieae **''Armatocereus'' – ''Browningia'' – ''Neoraimondia'' – '' Stetsonia'' *Cacteae **''Acharagma'' – ''Ariocarpus'' – '' Astrophytum'' – ''Aztekium'' – ''Coryphantha'' – '' Cumarinia'' – ''Echino ...

Browningia Candelaris
''Browningia candelaris'' is a species of cactus from northern Chile and southern Peru. It has a distinctive growth habit, with a straight spiny trunk topped by more-or-less spineless thinner branches. In some places, the long-term survival of local populations may be threatened by grazing, which destroys seedlings., pp. 134–135 Description ''Browningia candelaris'' has a tree-like habit of growth, reaching a height of up to . When mature, it has a distinct unbranched trunk with a diameter of up to , which is densely covered with straight brown spines, long. Above the trunk the plant has a crown of branching thinner stems, which may be entirely spineless or bear spines reduced to a few bristles. All the stems have about 50 ribs. The white flowers are tubular, long and are followed by fleshy fruits, yellow when ripe and up to long. The fruits are edible. Systematics The species was first described as ''Cereus candelaris'' in 1833 by the German botanist Franz Julius Ferdin ...
