Ribs: Approximately 17, ± notched, forming tubercles.
Areoles: Yellowish, somewhat sunken, about 5 mm apart.
Central spines:: 1-2 brown, with darker tips straight or somewhat curved. Larger at the base 0,5 cm long.
Radial spines: 7-12, appressed against the stem, bristle-like, flexible cream to brownish, turn greyish eventually 4 to 7 mm long arranged like little spiders and forming a close network that shades the body.
Flowers: The flowers are golden-yellow with outer tepals oragish up to 6 cm long.
Blooming season: June to August.
