		Backeberg arbeitete zunächst bei verschiedenen Handelsunternehmen in Hamburg, 1925 machte er sich mit einer Exportfirma selbständig.
		Backeberg drehte auf seinen Reisen Schmalfilme, mit denen er später Dokumentarfilme zusammenstellte.
		Backeberg war als Botaniker ein Autodidakt, nicht nur deshalb war seine Aufteilung der Familie der Kakteengewächse in 233 Klein-Gattungen heftig umstritten.

	Turbinicarpus Information Exchange - A short history of the genus Turbinicarpus
		The name Turbinicarpus was first used by Curt Backeberg for a subgenus of Strombocactus in 1936, a year later the subgenus was segregated and raised to the rank of genus by Curt Backeberg and Franz Buxbaum.
		It wasn't until 1948 that the name Turbinicarpus was used to describe a new species by Curt Backeberg and H.J. Jacobson, when they described Turbinicarpus klinkerianus.
		Backeberg, amongst others, did not accept that these plants were related to Toumeya, so he continued using his own genus when describing T.

		Backeberg based his system on the supposition that the equator formed a definite barrier and that no genus could extend both north and south of this imaginary line.
		In “Kaktus ABC” he lists 141 genera, or 17 more than did Britton and Rose; but by 1938, 37 more genera were necessitated by this very artificial division.

	OPUNTIOID GENERA
		Curt Backeberg (1958, 1977) and Franz Ritter had carried the splitting of genera begun by Britton and Rose to its extreme but their efforts did not make generic concepts any clearer.
		Tephrocactus Lemaire was used as a catchall for all the South American globular to mat-forming species by Backeberg (1958, 1977) but is now restricted by Kiesling (1984) to be a small group of Argentine dwarf shrubby species with articulate stems and dehiscent fruit.
		Austrocylindropuntia verschaffeltii (Cels) Backeberg, A.haematacantha Backeberg and Maihueniopsis nigrispina (K.Schumann) Kiesling (including Tephrocactus atroglobosus Backeberg) are anomalous and may merit a genus of their own.

		In his Cactus Lexicon book (my 1976 edition), Backeberg described this plant as a “tree-like Cerei with obliquely ascending branches characterized by a unique ‘helmet-crest cephalium’” at the top of mature branches.
		The cephalium can cover up to 12 inches of the top of the branch and is made up of long wool and bristles.

		I have looked through numerous books I have on psychedelics and at various websites and have found no information on this cactus.
		This cactus was named Trichocereus scopulicola by Friedrich Ritter, respelled Trichocereus scopulicolus by Curt Backeberg (along with a note saying he could not find a description for it) and most recently renamed Echinopsis scopulicola based on Roy Mottram's opinion as expressed to David Hunt.
		It has apparently NEVER seen any type of analysis so no one really knows what is in it other than mescaline.
