Marcgravia neurophylla

Marcgravia neurophylla is a little-known climber described by Gilg in 1898 from south-eastern Brazil, with no georeferenced wild records in GBIF. This profile combines the Atlantic Forest climate of the checklist region at about 580 m with what is known of the genus: a shingling root-climber of humid forest that wants a damp vertical surface, filtered light and a mildly cooler, drier winter.

Where it grows wild

Presumed a root-climbing hemiepiphyte of humid Atlantic Forest, shingling up trunks in the shaded understory before producing free-hanging fertile branches.

No elevation is recorded; the single climate site is a placeholder at 582 m in the Espírito Santo and Minas Gerais hill forests and may not match the type locality.
