The name of this genus is an anagram of Lima, the capital city of Peru, near which the first plants of this species were found. Mila is a genus that is found on the hills and mountains of Peru. The stems are cylindrical, forming clumps and are very similar to some Echinocereus species. Mila displays a wide range of variation from one population to another; however, throughout the range, there is difficulty determining where one species leaves off and another begins since the variation is gradual from one location to the next. As a result, most authors treat Mila as a monotypic genus with the single species, Mila caespitosa.
