{{Short description|Former genus of cacti}} {{Italic title}} '''''Lobivia''''' is a formerly recognized [[genus]] of [[Cactus|cacti]] [[native species|native]] to South America from Bolivia, Peru to northwestern Argentina and Northern Chile. {{As of|2025|November}}, it was considered by [[Plants of the World Online]] to be a [[Synonym (taxonomy)|synonym]] of the genus ''[[Echinopsis]]''.<ref name=POWO_294669-2>{{cite web | title=''Lobivia'' Britton & Rose | website=Plants of the World Online | url=http://powo.science.kew.org/taxon/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:294669-2 | access-date=2025-11-13}}</ref>
==Taxonomy== The genus ''Lobivia'' was established by [[Nathaniel Lord Britton]] and [[Joseph Nelson Rose]] in 1922.<ref name=IPNI_294669-2>{{IPNI|taxon=''Lobivia'' |authority=Britton & Rose|id=294669-2|access-date=2025-11-20|mode=cs1}}</ref> Its status as an independent genus has varied. In the [[CITES]] Cactaceae Checklists prior to 2016, it was treated as a synonym of ''Echinopsis''. In the 3rd edition of 2016, it was restored as an independent genus based on a 2012 phylogenetic study.<ref name=Hunt16>{{Cite book |last1=Hunt |first1=D. |date=2016 |title=CITES Cactaceae Checklist |edition=3rd |publisher=Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew |isbn=978-0-9933113-2-1 |url=https://www.kew.org/sites/default/files/2019-02/CITES%20Cactaceae%20Checklist%20Third%20Edition.pdf |accessdate=2025-11-20}}</ref> A major 2025 classification of the family Cactaceae returned ''Lobivia'' to a synonym of ''Echinopsis'',<ref name=deVoEgglNyffLarr25>{{Cite journal |last1=de Vos |first1=Jurriaan M. |last2=Eggli |first2=Urs |last3=Nyffeler |first3=Reto |last4=Larridon |first4=Isabel |last5=McGinnie |first5=Catherine |last6=Epitawalage |first6=Niroshini |last7=Maurin |first7=Olivier |last8=Forest |first8=Félix |last9=Baker |first9=William J. |date=2025 |title=Phylogenomics and classification of Cactaceae based on hundreds of nuclear genes |journal=Plant Systematics and Evolution |volume=311 |issue=5 |doi=10.1007/s00606-025-01948-z |article-number=28 |pmid=40809096 |pmc=12339657 |bibcode=2025PSyEv.311...28D |name-list-style=amp }}</ref> a view accepted by Plants of the World Online {{As of|lc=yes|2025|November}}.<ref name=POWO_294669-2/>
