I too am seeing this on the Samsung Galaxy S II.
I have an SD card installed that mounts at /sdcard/external_sd but I cannot
browse to any dirs when importing keys.
Workaround is to move the keys from /sdcard/external_sd/ssh to /sdcard

I also do not know how to import a key on the Galaxy Nexus (ICS, no sd card).

I also can't import a key to a galaxy nexus. Also, how do I export a key that I
generated on the galaxy nexus to get the key to my server?

I managed to import a key to ConnectBot on Galaxy Nexus. Here's the procedure:
1. On Mac in a terminal window, cp ~/.ssh/id_rsa .. # put the private
key file in home directory
2. Having download Android File Transfer, connect phone to Mac with USB cable.
AFT "finder" window
pops up.
3. Drag ~/id_rsa from actual finder window to AFT "finder" into Downloads
directory on the phone.
4. On phone, start ConnectBot and open a local terminal session. If you ls, you
see that there is a /sdcard directory (even though no actual sd card). If you
ls sdcard, you'll see that that is the directory whose contents are being
listed in the AFT "finder". So ..
5. On Mac, quit Android File Transfer app (or physically disconnect the phone).
6. In ConnectBot local terminal, mv /sdcard/Downloads/id_rsa /sdcard
7. Now select ssh in ConnectBot and in menu, Manage Pub Keys, Import
8. Now you should see id_rsa under Copy from /sdcard. Select it. DONE.

I have a Nexus 7 and I got it to work. Just copy key file to storage root. Then
the "Pick from /sdcard" will list your key files to choose from.

Encountering the same issue running Ice Cream Sandwich (CM9) on a Fascinate

I think I found the problem. I too had problems importing keys. My phone (a
AT-AS43D2, sold by ALDI). has internal storage mounted on /sdcard. The 'real'
sdcard is mounted on /mnt/sdcard2. If I put the key in that dir, it is found.
So the text on screen 'Pick from /sdcard' is wrong and misleading. Maybe it
should state 'Pick from external sd' or something. Or use environment var
EXTERNAL_STORAGE to build that title.
