Pediocactus winkleri is in the Center for Plant Conservation’s National Collection of Endangered Plants.
Pediocactus bradyi subsp. winkleri ist eine Unterart der Pflanzenart Pediocactus bradyi in der Familie der Kakteengewächse (Cactaceae). Das Artepitheton winkleri ehrt deren Entdecker Frau Agnes Winkler und ihrem Sohn Jim. Englischer Trivialnamen sind „Winkler’s Cactus“ und „Winkler’s Pincushion Cactus“.
Die Unterart ist bedroht und wurde in den Anhang I des Washingtoner Artenschutzabkommens zum Schutz gefährdeter Arten aufgenommen.
Der kugelförmige bis eiförmige einzeln wachsende Pediocactus bradyi subsp. winkleri wird 3,5 bis 7 cm lang und 2,5 bis 5,5 cm breit. Typisch ist die verzweigte Rübenwurzel, die auch bei den Unterarten Pediocactus bradyi subsp. bradyi und Pediocactus bradyi subsp. despainii vorhanden ist. Die gelben, rosafarbenen glockenförmigen Blüten sind 1,5 bis 2,2 cm lang und 1,5 bis 3 cm breit. Ein bis drei Blüten erscheinen unregelmäßig um den Scheitel. Charakteristisch ist die extreme Bewollung der Areolen die bei den Unterarten Pediocactus bradyi subsp. bradyi und Pediocactus bradyi subsp. despainii nicht vorhanden ist.
Geophytische Merkmale wie auch bei dem weiteren Vertreter der Sektion Rhytidospermae, Pediocactus bradyi und den Vertretern der Sektion Pediocactus Pediocactus paradinei und Pediocactus knowltonii werden deutlich.
Er ist bei trockenem Stand bis minus 20 °C winterhart. Die wurzelechte Kultivierung ist in Europa möglich.[1]
Pediocactus bradyi subsp. winkleri wächst endemisch in der Navajoan Wüste in Utah in alkalischen mit Muschelrückständen angereicherten Böden auf flachen Hügeln in Höhenlagen von 1450 bis 1650 Metern. Sie ist dort vergesellschaftet mit Sclerocactus wrightiae, Sclerocactus parviflorus, Echinocereus triglochidiatus, Opuntia polyacantha und Yucca-Arten.
Die Beschreibung als Pediocactus bradyi subsp. winkleri erfolgte 1995 durch Fritz Hochstätter.[2] Nach Ansicht von Fritz Hochstätter lautet der korrekte Name Pediocactus bradyi subsp. winklerorum, da in der Erstbeschreibung Frau und Sohn erwähnt werden und daher die Mehrzahl für den Artnamen gewählt werden muss.[3]
Synonyme sind:
In der Roten Liste gefährdeter Arten der IUCN wird die Unterart als „Least Concern (LC)“, d. h. als nicht gefährdet geführt.[8]

Pediocactus winkleri, commonly known as Winkler's cactus or Winkler's pincushion cactus, is a small cactus endemic to the state of Utah in the United States. It is known only from Emery and Wayne Counties.
The cactus is shaped like a small ribbed ball. It has 9 to 14 short radial spines each 1.5 – 4 mm long. The flowers range from peach to pink in color. The cactus is cold-hardy and are native to high altitude sandy hilltops and slopes.
This cactus was first documented in the early 1960s by Mrs. Agnes Winkler who was traveling with her then teenage son, Jim Winkler, in Utah's San Rafael Swell. Dr. Lyman Benson had earlier named a species that was then thought to be the same or that was similar (Pediocactus bradyi, discovered in Arizona in 1958 and which only occurs there). It was not until 1979 that botanist Ken Heil recognized P. winkleri as a new species. The Winklers had noticed the cactus during a vacation to Capitol Reef. Upon returning home to New Mexico, Mrs. Winkler sent a letter to local botanist Ken Heil along with a picture and habitat description. Heil had started to undertake botanical work in southern Utah and located the population based on Mrs. Winkler's description.
Since the intention of the author was to honor Mrs. Agnes Winkler (see the "New in 2012" section and specifically the first 2/17/12 entry on the What's New page of the Utah Rare Plant Guide [1]), its specific epithet should have been "winklerae." Because that intent was not specifically outlined in the original description, changing the name to "winklerae" may require a formal committee request rather than relying on Article 60.11 of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature which would allow for correction if the intent was clear.
In 1999 David Hunt listed the cactus as a provisionally accepted taxon under the name of Pediocactus bradyi ssp. winkleri in the Second Edition of the CITES Cactaceae Checklist. DNA analyses conducted to date however have shown that neither Pediocactus despainii nor this taxon are related to Pediocactus bradyi and that both P. despainii and P. winkleri are likely more closely related instead to P. simpsonii. [2]
P. winkleri was listed as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act on August 20, 1998. As with many other cactus species, its most serious threat relates to poaching by plant collectors (but is also threatened by off-road vehicle use). Cacti such as P. winkleri should only be grown from legitimately obtained seed or plants legally grown from seed and should never be taken from the wild.
