In Jeju Island, there are two different types of Opuntia cactus in cladodae, fruit, flower, flowering period and spine. There is no comparative study of these two taxa yet, so it is often seen as the same species. The purpose of this study was to investigate the phylogenetic relationship between the Taxa of the Opuntia monacantha Haw. and Opuntia stricta Haw. in Jeju Island. The results indicate that the two taxa were completely different from each other on the analysis of nrITS, matK and atpB-rbcL gene as well as the morphological comparison. Also, O. monacantha among the two taxa is included in the Elatae series, so South America is the origin, and O. stricta is included in the Scheerianae series, which confirms that North America is the origin. The name of the O. monacantha in Jeju Island was named Jeju-Baick-nyun-cho considering geographical location conditions and symbolic characteristics.
