|discussion=<p>The undifferentiated marginal cells of the leaf base and the large abaxial solid papillae near the leaf tip distinguish <i>Aloina hamulus</i> from <i>A. rigida</i>, which, in addition, has a strongly twisted and longer peristome. The ovoid-cylindric capsule and abaxially papillose leaves distinguish this species from <i>A. aloides </i>var.<i> ambigua</i>. Young leaves should be checked when papillae are not evident in mature leaves.</p>
