Echeveria yalmanantlanensis

Echeveria yalmanantlanensis A.Vázquez & Cházaro was described in 2013 (Brittonia) and is named after the Sierra de Manantlán in western Mexico (Jalisco-Colima). GBIF holds only two preserved specimens and no usable wild records, so no climate was measured. Treat the targets below as a general western-Mexican montane Echeveria regime: bright, warm, summer-wet and winter-dry.

Where it grows wild

No habitat detail was reachable. The Sierra de Manantlán is a mountain range of pine-oak and cloud forest with rocky outcrops, where Echeveria usually grow on rocks and cliffs; this profile assumes a rock-dwelling plant in bright, broken light.

Unknown: no records with elevation were available. The Sierra de Manantlán spans roughly 400-2,900 m.
