It does have the Owls Eye pattern on the top but not as pronounced as the other one.
To visit other blogs with wonderful cacti art and photography please visit "Teri's Painted Daisies" and have a very happy Cactus Monday!

Owls Eye Cactus
I didn't think I had much new going on with my cacti until I noticed this little guy has a whole bunch of buds forming. It was labeled an "Owls Eye" cactus, which is also the label on the last pictured cactus. I did a little research and I think this first one is a Mammillaria karwinskiana.

Oh wow, very unique! I don't think I have ever seen one like this either. I learn something new every week here.

Aha! I have one of those (Mammillaria karwinskiana) too and it's been doing the same thing lately. Blooming like crazy. Have never bothered to look up what it is, so thank you for the identification.
