Front cover: (Above): Substantial clusters of Mammillaria leuthyi are often possible when it is grown on a graft, as seen here in a plant propagated by Terry Edney and photographed by Dave Angus.

(Below) A new undisturbed habitat of Discocactus diersianus in the same National Park as the type locality. At present it is guarded by nothing more than the Seriema bird (Cariama cristata), but sadly the site, together with its cacti, may soon be destroyed by a demand for the rocks that they grow among for roadworks.
