Etymology

Nothogenus for intergeneric hybrids between Aporocactus and Selenicereus.

The names of nothogenera for bigeneric hybrids are formed by combining the names of the parental genera "into a single word, using the first part or the whole of one, the last part or the whole of the other (but not the whole of both) and, optionally, a connecting vowel" (article H.6.2, International Code of Nomenclature).

This is a younger synonym of ×Seleniporocactus.
