We thank the many park rangers and local farmers who kindly informed us of the date of bamboo flowering in their area and of the age of the specific plants we sampled. We are also grateful to Pedro Muñoz, San Martin park keeper for his assistance in field work and Lautaro Bahamondes for the illustration.
