In the highlands of Chiapas, rapid habitat destruction and alteration threaten epiphytes. Presumably, forest transformation increases open and border-type vegetation, characterized by drier conditions tban those prevailing deeper in tbe foresto If so, mesic epiphytes should be especially affected. We investigated tbe role of water availability during tbe growtb of a population of tbe wide-ranging mesic C3 phytotelm bromeliad Tillandsia guatemalensis. Chiapas experiences a pronounced dry season from November to April when average monthly precipitation falls below 30 mm. T. guatemalensis observed in situ released seeds during this interval and high gerrnination rates occurred about seven weeks after tbe rainy weatber returned (over 93%, an ob...
