Tillandsia milagrensis

A northeastern Brazilian Tillandsia described by Leme in 1993; the name refers to Milagres in Bahia. It is recorded at 280-490 m in a hot climate, with days of 29-35 C and nights of 17-22 C. The Milagres area is known for granite inselbergs, so it is treated here as a sun-exposed rock dweller, which is unconfirmed.
