Chusquea serpens is known from localities with an annual mean temperature of 22.6°C and precipitation of 2504 mm. Temperatures show relatively little seasonality (standard deviation ~51.8), varying from 28.5°C in the warmest month to 17.1°C in the coolest (isothermality ratio ~82.9). Precipitation shows moderate seasonality (coefficient of variation ~41.2), varying from 620 mm in the wettest month to 8 mm in the driest. The mean temperatures of the wettest (totaling 1625 mm) and driest (totaling 33 mm) quarters being 22.4°C and 22.8°C, respectively, and the mean precipitation of the warmest (28.2°C) and coolest (5.9°C) quarters being 478 mm and 679 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.
