Opuntia setispina
Please see my comment at Talk:Opuntia setispina. You need to supply reliable recent sources that state that it is not a synonym of Opuntia pottsii or else the article should be converted to a redirect to that species. At the least the article needs to say that Plants of the World Online (one of the most widely used sources of plant species lists in the English Wikipedia) does not accept the species. See here.
