Some species of ceroid cacti were known as torch cactus or torch-thistle, supposedly due to their use as torches by Native Americans in the past.: "any of several columnar cacti of the genus ''Cereus'' whose stems were used by No. American Indians for torches." The genus '' Cereus'' was first genus for such cacti and one of the oldest cactus genera. Its circumscription varies depending on the authority.
