Echeveria krahnii

A small Bolivian Echeveria described by Kimnach, known from only a few collections in the eastern Andean foothills of southern Bolivia at about 1,200–1,400 m. The climate there is warm, with a wet summer from November to March and a long dry winter. Little is published on its habitat, so these conditions come from the measured climate and the genus.

The measured sites lie at about 1,220–1,400 m.
