Its ability to maintain higher moisture levels through the dry season makes it an ecologically stable refuge compared to surrounding, more arid locations.
The site maintains significantly higher soil gravimetric water content (49.4% average) compared to C. villosissimus habitats (32.0%). frijolito
Here is a solid feature breakdown of Frijolito based on 2015 ecological research: Its ability to maintain higher moisture levels through
A critical differentiator is its higher rainfall during the dry season (January–April), recording an average of 92.6 mm compared to 69.2 mm in surrounding areas like Gamboa. frijolito
Frijolito serves as a primary site for researching ecological adaptation, particularly for C. allenii in Panama.
The habitat presents lower light availability, averaging around 11.3% of full sun (PAR) in the wet season, which favors shade-tolerant adaptations. Contextual Significance
