Dreaded mammillaria ID

Post by Conrad »

The most unwelcome of cactus ID tasks, the miscellaneous mammillaria. This one a gift from a coworker they found at a car boot sale. Widely spaced tubercles and hooked centrals. Tubercle spacing has remained after a year growing under proper conditions. Suggestions appreciated.

Looks like what used to be Mamm. wildii, now crinita ssp wildii.
