Geography
Country: Guinea
Coordinate: 8° 32' 30" N, 8° 55' 0" W
Basis of coordinate: stated in text
Geography comments: combines two sites sampled with roughly equal effort:
near summit of Pic de Fon 8 34 N 8 54 W elev 1350 m
village of Banko 8 31 N 8 56 W elev 600 m
near summit of Pic de Fon 8 34 N 8 54 W elev 1350 m
village of Banko 8 31 N 8 56 W elev 600 m
Environment
Habitat: montane grassland
Substrate: ground surface
WMT: 28.9
CMT: 23.3
MAP: 1850.0
Habitat comments: MAP 1700 to 2000 mm "with a long dry season lasting five to six months"
CMT and WMT based on climate station 65528 (Odienne), which has comparable MAP
the mountain summit is "dominated by montane grasslands" and the western slope including Banko apparently also does but "shows larger tracts of primary forests along ravines"
