== Description ==
'''Acanthocalycium klimpelianum''' is a small globose cactus species native to Argentina. Plants are typically solitary, occasionally forming small clusters with age. The stem is dark green to gray-green, spherical to slightly depressed, reaching up to 8–10 cm in diameter.

The ribs are well defined, divided into tubercles. Areoles are rounded, bearing clusters of spines. Spines are stiff, radial spines numbering around 8–12, thin and straight, while central spines (1–3) are slightly longer and more robust.

Flowers are funnel-shaped, relatively large compared to the body, typically pink to magenta with lighter throats. Floral tubes bear scales with fine hairs and bristles. Fruits are small, dry, and dehiscent when mature.

== Distribution ==
* Argentina – northwestern regions

Occurs in dry mountainous habitats, often on rocky slopes and well-drained soils.

== Taxonomy ==
According to '''Joël Lodé''', this species is placed in the genus [[Acanthocalycium]].

The genus is closely related to [[Echinopsis]] and has historically been included within it by some authors, reflecting ongoing taxonomic debates within the tribe Trichocereeae.
