I will check in the morning. It's dark now. I have some different small cacti. That Epi, though, has always had very smooth stems. (autocorrect changed "stems" to "ATMs" to further confuse). So sorry for confusion on I.D.
You may need to give me a photo tutorial here. I'm not sure what you mean by 'smooth stems'. Are you referring to the sort of scalloped look on the edges? Seems like the 'stem' is in the center of those leafy type pads and not a stem like I think of. I've been looking at it and the ric rac orchid this week and thinking if the Epi just had little thorns at those scallops, there growth habit would be very much the same. I should whisper that very quietly because the botanists may see it and change the official classification of one or the other or both
