Chusquea smithii is known from localities with an annual mean temperature of 13.9°C and precipitation of 949 mm. Temperatures show relatively little seasonality (standard deviation ~65.6), varying from 20.8°C in the warmest month to 5.3°C in the coolest (isothermality ratio ~79.4). Precipitation shows considerable seasonality (coefficient of variation ~59.3), varying from 147 mm in the wettest month to 21 mm in the driest. The mean temperatures of the wettest (totaling 424 mm) and driest (totaling 72 mm) quarters being 14.1°C and 13°C, respectively, and the mean precipitation of the warmest (14.6°C) and coolest (13°C) quarters being 285 mm and 72 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.
