Puna

The genus Puna consists of several species of cacti which, according to some classifications, are an autonomous genus, while according to others are part of the Opuntia genus. Sometimes some species are named as Tepphrocactus, as it happens for Puna subterranea (Tephrocactus subterraneus). Nevertheless, they don’t look like Opuntias at all.
