Excerpt from Compositae Newsletter: May 17, 2001
Senecio ferrugineus is a very rare species and most likely endemic to the Chimborazo volcano. Its occurrence seems to be restricted to a narrow altitudinal belt on the eastern mountain side; in 1997 the species was found growing among rocks on sparsely colonized glacial moraines at altitudes Of 4500 - 4700 m. Although the label information by hitchcock (21970) indicates altitudes 3600 4500 m (see below), from the Observed habitat requirements it can be assumed that the species most probably does not occur below the upper superparamo belt.
