A new Cotyledon is described from the Barberton centre of endemism, in Mpumalanga. Cotyledon egglii is a distinct succulent shrublet from serpentine soils growing on steep cliffs and rocky terrain in Savanna. It differs from Cotyledon orbiculata var. oblonga by its distinctly cuneiform leaves sparingly beset with glandular hairs and corolla bearing horizontally spreading transversely oblong yellowish squamae 2 × 1mm, truncate at the apex.
