Default another Mammillaria ID

Got this one at the Green Scene in Fullerton last weekend. Looks a bit like M casoi, but I am certainly not a cactus expert.

Palmbob - I'm not a cactus expert either, but it kinda looks like "m. haageana"........maybe??

palmbob,
in looking around for a name for your new mammillaria, I came across this site that you might enjoy:
Photos de Georges

quite a few nice pics, and the text on the right side of the page also contain links. Some really nice stuff.

It is certainly not M. casoi which is now considered by some to be a synonym of M. mystax. Looks a bit more like M. crucigera, or at least related to it, to me.
