Según Kiesling y Metzing (2006, 21: 17-18) "... a nice taxon was found by Angela Kiesling near Concordia (Entre Rios, NW* Argentina). Comparisons with other species have shown that it is morphologically very similar to Frailea mammifera Buining & Brederoo, a species occurring near Don Pedrito, Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil)." Para nosotros, más que similar parece igual, ya que "The main difference is in the color of the spination, which is reddish brown in the new taxon (versus yellow in Frailea mammifera)". Los autores continúan: "This Frailea has become common in cultivation and is often distributed with the provisional name 'Frailea angelesii'. In view of its disjunct distribution and distinctive characters, but also its overall similarity with Frailea mammifera, it should be classified as subspecies rather than as species. To make the name available for the use in the New Cactus Lexicon [Hunt et al. 2006, text: 124], is described here at this rank:". Hallamos estos argumentos insuficientes para justificar la publicación de un nuevo taxón, por esta razón consideramos Frailea mammifera ssp. angelesiae R. Kiesling y Metzing un sinónimo innecesario de F. mammifera. (Traducido de: Anceschi & Magli 2013b, 55-56)
