English names not checked: Wikidata's common names were not read for this page.
GBIF's records not checked. GBIF's backbone holds no one accepted species of this name, and a name it holds only as another species' synonym is not taken for this one, so GBIF's records were not asked. So this page has no points on its map, no map marker, no habitat climate, no cultivation sheet and no species of nearest climate; the range is Kew's. Not a statement that none exist. How.
Summary
Lophophora alberto-vojtechii is a species of Lophophora found in Mexico. It is a miniature species of Lophophora. The alkaloid content of Lophophora alberto-vojtechii has yet to be established, but probably contains much less mescaline than Lophophora williamsii (peyote) similarly to other Lophophora species such as Lophophora diffusa (false peyote). Lophophora alberto-vojtechii was first discovered in 2007 and was first described in the scientific literature in 2008 or 2009.

Grouped as a cactus or succulent, listed under the genus Lophophora in the archetype table, and Kew describes it as “succulent subshrub”.
How this section is made
Each card states this species' habitat figures with their sources, and what two fixed rules read from them; nothing here says what the plant does, wants or tolerates. The rules · the terms.
Group. Listed under the genus Lophophora in the archetype table, and Kew describes it as “succulent subshrub”. A group is taken only where Kew's description of the species agrees with the table's listing. The table gives no figure and no prose; the cold floor is the habitat's alone.
