Variable	Observed range	Central range
Annual mean temperature	21.93 – 28.71	22.41 – 28.17
Temperature of the warmest month	27.53 – 38.79	28.01 – 37.95
Temperature of the coldest month	14.29 – 22.87	16.49 – 22.39

Precipitation seasonality	22.7 – 118.58	27.5 – 109.72

These values describe the documented climate envelope of the taxon. They are not, by themselves, a local recommendation.

Variable	Unit	Observed range	Central range
Cation exchange capacity (CEC)	cmol(+)/kg	6.34 – 14.62	6.9 – 13.1
Clay	%	19.48 – 29.82	20.6 – 26.3
Coarse fragments	%	18.2 – 42.62	25 – 38.5
