This is possibly a reference to Faucaria lupina, which is now a synonym of F. felina.

See this revision of Faucaria by Ben Groen & Van Der Maesen in Bothalia:

Interesting article Derek thanks for pointing that out. I will now spend the weekend removing some of the more curious names from labels.....
