First is probably Echinocereus gentryi as it looks a long tubed scheerii type flower, but less likely E. moricallii as that has a short funnelform flower.

Second Mammillaria spinossima

Edit:- corrected it to E. gentryi as I had not noticed my auto spellchecker does not like botanical names so corrected it to "gentry" without me noticing!
