) are from open sites, with regenerating vegetation. Nevertheless, the species occurs in six conservation units, four of which are “Sustainable Use Units”, which means “with a few restrictions” (either “environmental protection areas” or “areas with special touristic interest”), and two in state parks that are full protection units. In the state of Paraná, the species was registered in the “Área de Proteção Ambiental de Guaraqueçaba”, “Área de Proteção Ambiental de Guaratuba”, “Área Especial de Interesse Turístico do Marumbi”, and “Parque Estadual do Palmito”.
