Aloe prostrata, also known as Lomatophyllum prostratum, is a type of Aloe plant that is native to the Antsiranana Province in Madagascar. It can be found in shady forests on limestone. This plant has long, narrow, and curved dark-green leaves with pale spots and small teeth on the edges. It can form clumps and produces red flowers on a cylindrical stem. The fruits of this plant are long-lasting berries. There is a subspecies called Aloe prostrata subsp. pallida, which can be identified by its paler leaves and flowers. Aloe prostrata is part of a group of aloes that produce fleshy berries and were previously classified as Lomatophyllum. It is closely related to another species called Aloe sakarahensis, which has solitary and faintly lineate features.
