Stenocereus quevedonis is a tree-like cactus that usually grows straight branches and can reach a height of 6 meters.

It develops a distinct trunk and its dark green shoots are 1 to 4 meters long, with a diameter of 10 to 15 centimeters.

The cactus produces long, funnel-shaped flowers that are white or yellow with a slight pink tinge.

[2] Stenocereus quevedonis is commonly found in deciduous forests and scrubland of Michoacán and Guerrero, Mexico, in the Balsas River Basin, at altitudes between 100 and 500 meters.

The specific name, "quevedonis", pays homage to the Mexican botanist Miguel Ángel de Quevedo.
