Very interesting - thank you! As far as I know, it is a hybrid, and therefore would not be found in the native habitat - but from what you just posted - it is a true species ? Enigmatic little plant. 

One thing I noticed is   "subspicata-concinna complex" I had no inkling that they were even that close. 

Thanks! Jude

Sans.subspicata-Sans.concinna complex from Mozambique. John Lavranos who
has collected extensively on Socotra says that no Sansevierias are found on
Socotra, according to Grigsby (1987). Grigsby (1987) refers the collection
to Lavranos 309 but Chahinian (1992) did more extensive research on the
problem and states that the collection is actually Lavranos 5949 from north
of Massinga, Mozambique. Chahinian, B.J. (1992) SANSEVIERIA CASE REOPENED. The Sansevieria Journal 1
