I posted this originally as boolii and insularis, but thanks to a member who has looked closely, I now think the plant on the left is M. insularis as well, even though I bought it as a young seedling of M. boolii.
But the spines are not right, and this is one of the defining characteristics. So I must relabel!!
And find a proper M. boolii!
