Peperomia dauleana

An Ecuadorian endemic Peperomia described by Casimir de Candolle in 1890, with almost nothing published about it since. The epithet points to Daule in the coastal lowlands of Guayas, but the specimens in GBIF carry no locality.

Where it grows wild

No habitat is recorded. If the name reflects the type locality, it grew in the lowland forest of the Guayas basin, probably on shaded trunks, logs or rocks.

No elevation is recorded; Daule itself is near sea level.
