Etymology

Irecho(?) + Cereus, the name of a genus of columnar cacti and a designation for columnar cacti in general. Unknown. A provisional catalog name by Hans Krainz. According to Backeberg (Cactaceae 6: 3904. 1962) perhaps a misprint or a corrupted name. The only included species is Irechocereus akersii from Peru.
