Chusquea simpliciflora is known from localities with an annual mean temperature of 24.3°C and precipitation of 2674 mm. Temperatures show relatively little seasonality (standard deviation ~80.9), varying from 30.2°C in the warmest month to 18.8°C in the coolest (isothermality ratio ~76.4). Precipitation shows considerable seasonality (coefficient of variation ~63.9), varying from 746 mm in the wettest month to 1 mm in the driest. The mean temperatures of the wettest (totaling 2124 mm) and driest (totaling 7 mm) quarters being 24.4°C and 24.3°C, respectively, and the mean precipitation of the warmest (28.3°C) and coolest (10.6°C) quarters being 601 mm and 550 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.
