Can't figure it out, seems I'm in a loop. I need help identifying a Coryphantha (??). Thank you

This looks like Echinocereus viridiflorus.

Yes, I'd agree, definitely one of the viidiflorus group at least.

Thank you, I didn't even consider that, I thought it was to far north for an Echinocereus. With the clues, I did learn they have been identified in the mountains near Taos in northern NM. None of the population I stumbled across on my walks are more that 10cm in height and are in a clump about 25 cm wide. More work required.
