My speciality is losing labels. I tend to discard or ignore unidentifiable seedlings. But this is a cutey, young but with big flower.

Re: G ?
'Tis truly a cutie - and worry not - I lose labels on the return from nurseries, branch meetings, friends houses, .....
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

Re: G ?
Sorry but can't agree with Vatteri, most probably Asterias or Stellatum which are the same plant. I'd go for Stellatum

Re: G ?
quehlianum is back in favour as the name for stellatum now, as discussed in GC's book which post-dates the NCL
As confirmed by Graham Evans when he gave an excellent Gymno talk last night at Dartford Branch.

Re: G ?
I was going to suggest G. berchtii, based on the black (-ish green) rather than brown body and the pinkish flower. G. stellatum has creamy flowers but never pink so far as I know. Same for G. occultum. It isn't G. vatteri.
Some of the others on your list might be possibles, but I don't have them to compare.
