This has some amount of introgression and it not very representative of the species. I would not recommend its inclusion.

Tony Frates commented on "File:Opuntia fragilis pm.jpg":
This picture shows a strong hybrid influence, probably from Opuntia polyacantha. Pink flowers in this species indicate introgression. Also the strongly flattened pads are very atypical for Opuntia fragilis. I would not recommend its inclusion in terms of it being representative of this taxon.

This shows a high level of introgression with Opuntia polyacantha. The flower color is atypical, and the pad shapes are not normal for Opuntia fragilis. I would not recommend its inclusion in terms of it being representative of this taxon.

This is an unusual looking form. Would not recommend its inclusion in terms of it being representative of this taxon.
