Aloe anivoranoensis

A northern Malagasy aloe first described by Rauh and Hebding as Lomatophyllum anivoranoense and moved to Aloe in 1998. Lomatophyllum-type aloes carry berry-like fruit and grow in warm, moist thicket and forest edges, not on bare rock. The GBIF records come from the far north of Madagascar at about 300-415 m, in a hot, humid climate with a short, fairly moist dry season.
