|3,5-4 cm Ø|Endemic to Mexico (Quetaro, Hidalgo and Guanajuato), the range extends to about 4,500 square kilometres and occurs in 19 known localities. Illegal collections are an ever-increasing threat to this species, which has been experiencing a dangerous decline in sexually mature specimens for years. Requires plenty of direct light and should only be watered moderately, even during the growing season, to maintain its natural form. Keep completely dry during the dormant period in winter. Can also tolerate temperatures as low as -4 °C (25 °F) for short periods of time.
