Chusquea patens is known from localities with an annual mean temperature of 23.8°C and precipitation of 2894 mm. Temperatures show relatively little seasonality (standard deviation ~68), varying from 30°C in the warmest month to 18.3°C in the coolest (isothermality ratio ~78.6). Precipitation shows considerable seasonality (coefficient of variation ~50.9), varying from 556 mm in the wettest month to 3 mm in the driest. The mean temperatures of the wettest (totaling 1283 mm) and driest (totaling 20 mm) quarters being 23.6°C and 24.1°C, respectively, and the mean precipitation of the warmest (27.9°C) and coolest (17.5°C) quarters being 538 mm and 747 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.
