The nomenclatural problems involved with subgeneric names under Parodia are elucidated, and the nomenclature of all existing names is evaluated in detail. Subgeneric names under Notocactus are similarly covered in a second part. A third part consists of a list of published subgeneric names for the group arranged alphabetically by the epithet of the name of the species indicating the type.
