Aulonemia purpurata is known from localities with an annual mean temperature of 26.8°C and precipitation of 1362 mm. Temperatures show relatively little seasonality (standard deviation ~76), varying from 33°C in the warmest month to 21.1°C in the coolest (isothermality ratio ~78.2). Precipitation shows considerable seasonality (coefficient of variation ~57.2), varying from 341 mm in the wettest month to 16 mm in the driest. The mean temperatures of the wettest (totaling 970 mm) and driest (totaling 61 mm) quarters being 26.5°C and 26.5°C, respectively, and the mean precipitation of the warmest (28°C) and coolest (24.7°C) quarters being 252 mm and 492 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.
