Abstract
⺠This work determines intra-specific variation of leaf traits in Curatella which may account for its extended ecological range. ⺠SLA and Amass were positively related with rainfall whereas 13δC was negatively related. ⺠The responses to soil fertility were less clearly defined. ⺠The variation in leaf traits of Curatella populations is comparable to inter-specific variation seen in other studies. ⺠The leaf trait response of Curatella to rainfall and fertility position it at the slow end of the global leaf economics spectrum.
