No idea... But FYI some echinocactus species can look similar.

Echinocactus cornigerus might be something to look at.

It is synonymous with a few ferrocactus species that appear quite similar.

Thanks

It seems there are several species with wide, stripped central ... I have grown latispinus in the past.. It seems to have the widest spine of them all, even though not as wide as in mine. WIll stick with latispinus (?) for now, it should bloom soon enough if its that...
