is a small succulent plant of the genus Astroloba, restricted to an area of the western section of the Little Karoo, South Africa.

[1] [2][3] In appearance it is superficially very similar to Astroloba spiralis, with its sharp, spirally-arranged leaves.

A. spirella is also a smaller plant and has leaves that are sometimes striped with longitudinal streaks near the tips.

It can be distinguished from its northern relative, Astroloba pentagona, by its sharply pointed leaves, with properly marginate apices and absence of tubercles or striation.

It occurs in rocky ridges of shale in the Little Karoo - between Montagu in the west, Barrydale, and Ladismith in the east (where it gradually becomes Astroloba spiralis), and just south of Laingsburg in the north (where it grades into Astroloba pentagona).
