Hello, I took a shot of the supposed Mammillaria karwinskiana from the same place in the summer of 2011, but today I was comparing with another specimen identified in this forum, and I think the Lanzarote specimen is not that species because flowers are pink, not yellow, or is there some variety with pink flowers? Maybe someone can answer this question.
This is the link of the specimen I have uploaded today, and has been identified like probable M. karwinskiana:
I missed that post, sorry. However you are right that plant in Lanzarote is not M. karwinskiana, but I would suggest that it is Mammillaria geminispina.
