Agave quiotepecensis

An Agave with no usable wild records and no published account we could reach. The epithet points to Quiotepec in the Tehuacán–Cuicatlán valley of Oaxaca, a hot, dry thornscrub region, so this profile follows Agave of that setting: full sun, heat, a long dry winter and very fast drainage.

Where it grows wild

Not documented for this name. If it comes from the Quiotepec area, expect rocky, often limestone slopes in tropical thornscrub and columnar-cactus scrub.

Unknown; the Quiotepec area of the Cuicatlán valley lies roughly at 500–1000 m.
