Where it grows wild

Records concentrate on the Serra do Curral and neighbouring ranges of the Quadrilátero Ferrífero. Dyckia there grow among rocks on quartzite and ironstone outcrops in open campo rupestre, fully exposed. No species-specific habitat text was reachable.

Recorded at 863–1527 m, median about 1400 m.
