국표에는 없다.

Origin and Habitat: Echinopsis chiloensis occur along the coast and in the coastal cordillera of Chile (North-Central Valley of Chile) in the regions of Maule, O'Higgins, Metropolitana, Valparaíso and Coquimbo, from Talca to Valle del Elqui.
Altitude: 0-2000 metres above sea level.
Habitat: Chilean matorral (sclerophyllous forest) in the upper north-facing hill-slopes that flank the higher Andes. The climate in this area is similar to that of the Southern Californian chaparral. Echinopsis chiloensis has a wide range, is abundant, and even though it has threats these occur only in portions of its distribution. The major threats are land use change due to agriculture of fruit trees and urbanization.

Common Names include:
QUECHUA (Runasimi / Qhichwa simi): Khishka
