Merostachys pauciflora is known from localities with an annual mean temperature of 22.9°C and precipitation of 1713 mm. Temperatures show moderate seasonality (standard deviation ~137.4), varying from 30.7°C in the warmest month to 15.1°C in the coolest (isothermality ratio ~68.6). Precipitation shows considerable seasonality (coefficient of variation ~71.1), varying from 337 mm in the wettest month to 7 mm in the driest. The mean temperatures of the wettest (totaling 939 mm) and driest (totaling 24 mm) quarters being 23.6°C and 22.6°C, respectively, and the mean precipitation of the warmest (26.4°C) and coolest (16.6°C) quarters being 482 mm and 183 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.
