another Mammillaria ID

[palmbob]

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.

that link is awesome... I am going to be wading through that for weeks.

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.
