Chusquea exasperata is known from localities with an annual mean temperature of 19°C and precipitation of 2018 mm. Temperatures show relatively little seasonality (standard deviation ~39.2), varying from 25°C in the warmest month to 13.4°C in the coolest (isothermality ratio ~86.9). Precipitation shows relatively little seasonality (coefficient of variation ~22.4), varying from 439 mm in the wettest month to 37 mm in the driest. The mean temperatures of the wettest (totaling 1255 mm) and driest (totaling 131 mm) quarters being 18.8°C and 19°C, respectively, and the mean precipitation of the warmest (24°C) and coolest (8.8°C) quarters being 441 mm and 571 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.
