Arthrostylidium excelsum is known from localities with an annual mean temperature of 23.7°C and precipitation of 1827 mm. Temperatures show moderate seasonality (standard deviation ~154.1), varying from 32°C in the warmest month to 15.4°C in the coolest (isothermality ratio ~68.7). Precipitation shows considerable seasonality (coefficient of variation ~77.8), varying from 613 mm in the wettest month to 0 mm in the driest. The mean temperatures of the wettest (totaling 1568 mm) and driest (totaling 5 mm) quarters being 24.5°C and 23°C, respectively, and the mean precipitation of the warmest (29.4°C) and coolest (17.1°C) quarters being 502 mm and 224 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.
