Re: Mammillaria ID,
At first I thought it was just M. candida, but have a look here.

Re: Mammillaria ID,
Definitely not M. candida or humboldtii, but could well be supertexta or one of its closely related forms.

Re: Mammillaria ID,
I have several plants of Supertexta and yours looks about right, the only difference my plants appear to have
tighter spination? with so many clones in the hobby you will get a certain ammount of variation.
Also different growing conditions come into play. Hope this helps.
