A beautiful, globose-shaped catus native to Paraguay. It has numerous ribs with marked tubercles above which are its areolas. From these areolas there come out numerous combed thorns, arranged radially and thin. The epidermis is generally bluish green but can also be purple, depending on exposure to the sun. The beautiful flowers of F. ybatensis bloom at the apex of the plant, are yellow in color and reach up to 3 cm in diameter.
