This small, proliferous species , which is from the Sudan, forms rosettes of yellow-green leaves that are marked with white spots and reddish spines on the margins. The new name of this species is Aloe zub, reflecting its offsetting nature compared with what Aloe sinkatana is supposed to be like. The inflorescence is capitate with bright orange-red flowers.
