Rhipidocladum prestoei is known from localities with an annual mean temperature of 25.6°C and precipitation of 1782 mm. Temperatures show relatively little seasonality (standard deviation ~60.6), varying from 30°C in the warmest month to 20.7°C in the coolest (isothermality ratio ~79.9). Precipitation shows moderate seasonality (coefficient of variation ~42.9), varying from 251 mm in the wettest month to 53 mm in the driest. The mean temperatures of the wettest (totaling 656 mm) and driest (totaling 175 mm) quarters being 25.7°C and 25.2°C, respectively, and the mean precipitation of the warmest (26.3°C) and coolest (24.5°C) quarters being 581 mm and 349 mm, respectively.

Tables and figures are dynamically generated by intersecting georeferenced herbarium specimen localities with 10 minute resolution WorldClim v2.1 variables (Fick and Hijmans 2017). The above data are subject to change as specimens and geocoordinates are added, removed or altered.
