Looking at the extra amount of fuzzy areoles along the ribs, It doesn't seem to fit in with the other A. myriostigma's on the page. Including this one of yours Palmbob. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/345148/

was wondering about that one... nice looking plant... was labeled as such... but in those shows, who knows.

Apparently as the plant gets older the areoles become fuzzier. So This photo is probably in the right Page.
