My first thought is M. vetula, maybe ssp. gracilis. If so, I would expect the flowers were pale cream.

I have m. vetula ssp. gracilis and it looks a bit different.
But thanks for your suggestion. Maybe someone else will have an idea about my plant from first message?

Yes,it doesn't have any central spines and is smaller. So just vetula, probably.

I have to go back to this topic. Really thank you for your help but I'm still not sure about species of my mammillaria. In the photo gallery on this website vetula has much more radials, 2 central spines and darker body.
