Help ID this brown cactus
This was given to me last month. ID supposedly is Ferocactus emoryi but all the pictures I've googled on Ferocactus emoryi don't look like this.Plant is about 5 inches wide and 2 1/2 inches tall. TIA

Re: Help ID this brown cactus
Looks vastly more like an Eriosyce than a Ferocactus, maybe Eriosyce senils ssp. coimasesensis?
Re: Help ID this brown cactus
It's one of the more northern E. paucicostata/glaucescens/taltalensis group rather than the more southerly E. senilis group. As usual flowers would help.
